The John Muir trail is a 211 mile trail that follows 160 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail. Most think there are so many passes along the trail and find that be a discouraging factor but there are only 3 passes spread far apart from each other so that only leaves being gone for about 3 weeks as an excuse. More time equals more enjoyment then just zipping through it’s the sides trip up Whitney from the backside and so many other lakes, trails, peaks and passes to see along the trail. Most start the trail in Yosemite Valley and it just passed Mt Whitney. The documentary film was created last year during the highest snowpack in the decade melting away so it will display how the mountains weep those heavy tears.
The suspense is certainly building for this film for me, enjoy!!

20 or 30 years ago I would have put this on my wish list – but I know I couldn’t do it today. But it must be a great, great experience – and i LOVE to see photos or film about this hike!

Truels,
I hope you have the opportunity to see this film. I really believe it does the trail and the experience justice. We had fun and it translates on screen.
