Log trail, on the route to Hobler Lake -- Our first day's hike was an easy 4.5 miles, to Hobler Lake. - Frank Farmer's Photos

Backpack trip with friends Trailbunny, Bill, and Spencer, to North Fork of the Kings River and Portal Lake area, in California's High Sierra. Four started the trip, two finished. The trip evolved dramatically from the original plan. Here are Trailbunny's pics and notes from this trip: Part I, Part II, Part III. Here are my notes and pics from a trip here in 2001.

Frank Farmer > Wishon Reservoir -- Our trip started at Maxson TH near Courtright Res and ended at Rancheria TH near Wishon Res. Spectacular country.

Frank Farmer > TB's backpack, at Maxson TH -- We had an odd start to the trip. Bill's boots developed a split, so he drove home to Clovis for another pair. He would catch up with us at the first campsite.

Frank Farmer > Tiocampo's backpack -- Just when we thought everything is ready, I realized that my glasses were missing. I was wearing shades. Happily, we found the glasses in my car back at Rancheria, after another trip there. We got a late start, but all was well.
