Steve Roper's Sierra High Route - 2024
For my 65th birthday I set off to hike the Sierra High Route. Completed 4 of 5 sections.
"The Sierra High Route is one of the most spectacular and challenging treks in North America. Stretching approximately 195 miles (314 km) north to south through the Sierra Nevada, it is a largely off-trail affair that stays between 9,000 ft (2,743 m) and 12,000 ft (3658 m) for most of its rugged course. Along the way, aspirants will negotiate class 3 scrambles, talus slopes, and huge boulder fields while passing through an alpine wonderland of granite spires, glacier-carved valleys, and turquoise lakes. ~ Cam “Swami” Honan – “The most traveled hiker on earth” (Backpacker Magazine, January 2015)
