Annual Swamp Lake Trail run July 27-29

Postby Goatman » Tue Mar 27, 2012 12:31 pm

Swamp Lake Trail trip is going to be on July 27-29. This trail is in the Shaver Lake area, and is sort of a short version of the Dusy trail. The trail is 14 miles long, and we run about halfway and camp Fri and Sat night at Grouse Lake at 9100' elevation. The trail is moderately challenging with great scenery and a pretty nice camp spot right next to the lake. This is a nice trip because we chill for a couple days in camp, there's plenty of good wheeling on Fri and Sun, great Sierra scenery, and it's 3 hours from Bakersfield.

My grandsons enrolled in a music camp which means they can't go on Aug 3-5, and I don't want to go and not take them. So, we need to go another weekend. I can't go the 1st or 2nd weekend of Aug, any other time I'm OK.

Anyone up for going in a day early? Meeting at Dinkey Creek Wednesday night and hitting the trail Thursday morning?
