Another short visit, similar to Sequoia, makes me want to come back…
That was how Ryan’s journal entry about our time in Kings Canyon started. He went on to recall the sites we saw and what we did while we were there, but ended the short entry with the same sentiment.
Most of the park is wilderness so I hope to come back and do some backpacking to really enjoy what this park has to offer.
Shortly after visiting Petrified Forest NP and camping in our Element for the first time Ryan and I set out on a week long road trip from Scottsdale to California. We had learned a few things from our first camping trip in the Element and were prepared with new gear and a better strategy for packing and sleeping. On this trip we were hoping to see Sequoia, Kings Canyon, Yosemite and potentially Pinncales. Ryan was participating in the Flag2GC mountain bike race on Saturday so I was going to meet him at the Grand Canyon campsite where the race finished and then we would leave on Sunday morning. (more…)
After our trip to Petrified Forest in August 2013, Ryan and I headed to California for a week of camping and exploring. We were able to visit Sequoia, Kings Canyon and Yosemite. Two years later, these parks are still some of our favorites, you can see our rankings here. I’m working on a few posts about the trip, but it’s taking me a while to go through all the pictures, journal entries and GPS files. In the meantime, I put together this fun infographic to share some of the highlights! More to come! (more…)
