Memories Day 7
Day 7 Aug 7,1982<br>Since the trail we came up on didn't fit my map I looked around and found a trace of it on the south side of the creek, or I could just be lost again. The sky was still overcast so

Re: Food Drops
When we did the trail we stashed food at the Red's Mdw. store. We had 19 days left until we exited at Whitney Portal. After my friend dorpped out my son and I carried exactly 2 weeks worth of food

Re: Food Drops
If I had someone crazy enough to pack my food in over Taboose Pass I would love it. It's about half way between Florence and Whitney. It is a tougher hike in or out than Kearsarge, and the trailhead

Day 3 Aug 3, 1982<br>Having lived through the bear visit we awoke the next morning a little groggy but glad to see the sun. We were soon on our way to Tuolumne Mdws on an appreciated downhill. Lembert

Day 2 Aug 2,1982<br>We spent a fine night at our first camp. We woke rested and ready to go. Only one problem. When I went to take the packs down from the bear cable, I found that when I unhooked the

Muir Trail Memories
I happened to notice that the calendar this year is exactly the same as it was in 1982 when I did JMT. Since I'm notout hiking it right now I thought I'd post a trip report day by day.<br><br>On

Cartridge Pass
Does anyone have a map of the old JMT route down the King's Middle Fork and past Marion Lake? I have the modern maps but wondered if the old route map is viewable somewhere, just for the historical

Re: A frequent image
OK, dropped the slides off to have some prints made but it will be about a week to get them back. Keep an eye on this club and I will post them under "Photos" here when they get back.

Re: A frequent image
Someday I'll again visit this "cirque" as you call it again. Until then, all I have is the sweet memory. I would love it if you could email me the scanned picture, I don't care how bad it is. Or,

Re: A frequent image
Yes, this one is a beauty. I would post a picture but all I have is slides of this one and my scanner isn't that sophisticated. Anyone else have a good one?<br><br>This "lake" is actually a tarn or

Re: A frequent image
I have a similar memory 'burned' into my mind, that continues to remind me of why I love to backpack. My friend and I set out to do a trip from Cedar Grove to Rae Lakes in August 1993. We camped at
