My backpacking trips with Mike

During a recent discussion (see an article coming out Real Soon Now), it emerged that I've gone backpacking with my friend Mike for more than a decade.

So we tried to remember all our trips, and here's what I can remember:

  1. Mokelumne Wilderness: Grouse Lake from the Upper Blue Lake trailhead (2013)
  2. Yosemite National Park: Rancheria Creek from the Hetch Hetchy dam trailhead (2012)
  3. Caribou Wilderness: Posey Lake from the Hay Meadow trailhead (2011)
  4. Trinity Alps Wilderness: Lilypad Lake via Poison Canyon (2010)
  5. John Muir Wilderness: Baboon Lake from the Lake Sabrina trailhead (2009)
  6. Yosemite National Park: unnamed lake below Mt Hoffman from the May Lake trailhead (2008)
  7. Emigrant Wilderness: Relief Reservoir via Kennedy Meadows trailhead, with Dan (2007?)
  8. No trip in 2006?
  9. No trip in 2005?
  10. Yosemite National Park: Rancheria Creek from the Hetch Hetchy dam trailhead (2004 -- yes, we did this trip twice)
  11. Hoover Wilderness: Robinson Lakes via the Twin Lakes trailhead (2003?)
  12. Sequoia National Park: Mosquito Lakes from the Mineral King trailhead (2002?)
  13. John Muir Wilderness: South Fork of the San Joaquin River from the Florence Lakes trailhead (2001?)
  14. Desolation Wilderness: American Lake from the Echo Lakes trailhead. (2001?)

I'm sure there's more trips. I'm sure of it.

I Just Can't Remember.
