| Spotted Fawn Lake |
|
The trip was 10 days of untrailed route finding - only two miles of actual trail hiking the whole time - in the upper Yosemite park wilderness. The route finding adds a whole other level to cross-country travel in country that can be brushy and rugged. Picking a good route by only visually siting and using the map can be quite a challenge.
This was country I had been to - in parts - and wanted to return. I left on labor day weekend and amazingly saw not a soul the whole trip and hardly a boot print the whole way too.
I left from the Kibbie ridge trailhead on a route I had taken earlier this summer past Flora Lake. I camped in the same spot again this time. This picture is the second camp at Spotted Fawn Lake. A good sized lake and very pretty, also probably one of the more popular lakes that I hit, as it's one of the closest to the trailhead and a couple of miles from a major trail. But I saw no one here and had the lake all to myself. |
