    Join me on an adventure of a lifetime as I hike from Onion Valley to the breathtaking Kearsarge Pass. Get ready for stunning views of the Sierra Nevada mountains, alpine meadows, and crystal clear lakes. This moderate hike offers a challenging climb, but the rewards at the top are well worth it.
    Experience the rush of reaching the summit and taking in the panoramic vistas. The feeling of accomplishment as you reach the top of Kearsarge Pass is truly indescribable. This is a hike that will stay with you forever.
    Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to explore the great outdoors and challenge yourself. Pack your bags, grab your hiking boots and let's hit the trail! This is a journey you won't want to miss.
    Filmed in August of 2022 in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

    Going thru my dads old hunting cabinet I found an old USGS map of the Kearsarge area with his pencil marks. He marked out the trail he backpacked and the places he camped at sometime in the 70s. I plan on doing some backpacking starting next year. I intend to recreate his trip. Kearsarge Pass>Charlotte Lake>Gardner Pass>Gardner Creek>60 Lakes Basin> Rae Lakes>Glen Pass> then back out over Kearsarge Pass.

    I did this hike with my 14yo son last July .we flew in from Australia and was supposed to hike in Yosemite but the washburn fire had just started .I was very proud of my son who hadn't done any hiking before and only arrived in USA 2 days before . He struggled the last mile and we had to stop every 100m for him to rest but we made it. Went back down and camped at flower lake . I have a 3ft long print on my wall of flower lake in the morning that I took

      Scott also I looked up the map from the Trail Head to the Pass is only 4.1 miles...so basically 8.2 roundtrip. I was wondering how you got to the 11 mile number?

    Something is meant to be found, and I am glad that I came across your video. As someone who was making adventure videos on RUclips and also lost the drive, spirit, soul, and finding this brings all the greatest feelings that I once knew. Thank you so much for bringing and sharing this with us, because it showed me what I have been missing in my life. Thank you and wish you good luck on your journeys. :)

    Very nice video, Scott. Drone shots were a nice way to begin the video. Have you hiked down to the lakes. I was thinking of doing to reverse route from Bubbs Creek to Kearsarge and hike up to the top of the pass for either a sunrise or sunset view. What's it like hiking from the western side up to the top?

    • @Sheety33
      @Sheety33  11 месяцев назад

      Thank you! Yes, been up and over to the lakes (July of 2023 I believe). Great experience and will be headed back this summer. Just love the area so much. Hiking up the western slip of Kearsarge is short and sweet, and snow free in the summer.

    Mid-summer hike to all of these spectacular wild trout lakes - and no fishing? Perhaps you did..., 😊 but simply chose not to reveal it here in this video. Anyway, awesome content as always Scotty!

    I agree. The grade on this trail made for an easier incline, although I stopped at Flower Lake to camp and didn't finish the last part. The pass is still on my bucket list. 🪣
