Is this the most beautiful place in California?! This is a 3 night / 4 day backpacking trip in what I consider to be among the most beautiful places in the Eastern Sierra and even California for that matter. I’m joined by 3 of my friends as we start this adventure just a couple of days after the first snow of the season. It is absolutely stunning scenery from start to finish! Come along!

  1. Well..
    I love that you say Exactly Where you at and where you plan on going!
    The date and weather conditions are a Plus. Hopeing a good start to Your
    Great Adventure and Many vids of ARIZONA!

  2. yep, & lone pine. east side is best imo. Driving dwn the 101 from carmel to la in super clear spring night is great too. I wanta move to lone pine.

  3. stop eating sugar, switch to monk fruit sugar or stevia pure clear extract. The new Zevia cherry colas are incredible, enlightened ice cream.

  4. Love the blooper….you should do at end of every vid, shows the process and how much work goes into your great videos. Also another beautiful, hypnotic vid, thank you.

  5. Oh gorgeous! I’ve only been to the Valley once and Eastern Sierra once rock climbing. Fell in love with this place. All of the mountain ranges of California are so staggeringly stunningly majestic!

  6. Stunning views! Thank you for shooting this vlog and taking us along. If I ever get to hike in the US this place will be top of the to do list. I got hooked on the Sierras after seeing David Gray's vlog of the same hike. Simon (England)

  7. That was my very first solo hike in the Sierra. I had been with others, my first Solo was this loop. September 1969. Thanks for sharing. No videos in those days.

  8. awesome vd, my friends and I are planning a trip just like this. Do you need a permit for this? How to get them? someone please help.

  9. Thanks for sharing your trip! Looks amazing! Would you mind sharing your process for receiving the correct permits for backpacking in this area? Please and thank you!

  10. I've watched this vidio at least 3 times . It makes me feel so relaxed!!!!!I've been watching joey s videos I'm just not as relaxed with his . Don't get me wrong his are great also just scarier at times & no relaxing music! Everybody's different . Thank God !!!! Again take care & God Bless !!!
