| Comments: |
Did the "Pemi Loop" in clockwise direction, on a 3-day/2-night trip. Stayed at Liberty Spring and Guyot campsites. The second day was TOUGH - 14 miles, 5200 feet elevation gain. The Garfield Ridge Trail and the climb up South Twin were the most grueling parts. Beautiful weather and great views from all the peaks, and since we did the hike on Sunday thru Tuesday, none of the trails were crowded. |
