 | Comments: |
Wife and I hiked Mount Field and Mount Willey via Avalon trail and Willey Range trail. Trails were in excellent condition.
The hike was just under five hours. The hike up took about two hours to reach Mount Field and another 45 minutes to Mount Willey. The hike back took another 45 minutes from Willey to Field and one hour from Field to the truck.
Recommend micro-spikes. Started at 11am and finished just before 4pm. Found ourselves racing the available sunlight. Recommend starting a little earlier. |
