The High Sierra

This summer my family and I embarked on an epic backpacking trip through three of the High Sierra Camps in Yosemite.  We hiked 35 miles total, up and down between 7,150 and 10,750 feet, in three days. Though the distance, elevation, terrain, and pack weight proved to make it an extremely grueling task; being able to see parts of the park that the majority of visitors never do made it completely worth it. Below are a few of my favorite shots from the trip.
