Today
was a fairly easy day, although mostly uphill. We had slept at
9000 feet which helped acclimation and neither of us had any altitude
issues.
Journal Entry:
Drove to Bishop yesterday and stayed at Willow campground at 9000
feet. This morning started at 8am on Bishop Pass Trail.
Reached the pass before 2pm, passing many hikers and one horse train
heading in. Dropped down into Dusy Basin and camped at the
highest large lake. Puffy clouds all day, not threatening at
all. Tomorrow we drop into LeConte Canyon, then north on the JMT
to Big Pete Meadow.
