Backpacking in California - Yosemite High Passes Loop
The high country lakes, peaks, and passes of Yosemite are truly spectacular and on this 50 mile loop, we'll hike deep into the heart of this alpine environment. We'll travel mostly on trail, and have the opportunity to summit several peaks over 11,000' while topping out over 4 passes, including Red Peak Pass at 11,180', the highest trail pass in Yosemite. 360 degree views of Yosemite and the Sierra Nevada, in some of the least visited areas of the park make this trip yet another SYMG classic.
