While the campgrounds are closed, anyone hiking around this weekend?

Maybe a dozen cars at the Hilton trailhead this morning, they're hiking somewhere.

The wife and I did a day run past Kennedy Meadows above Ridgecrest. Our driveway to the Blackrock trailhead 117 miles one way. Hike down to Casa Vieja Meadows and while she explored the meadow and old log cabins I played with the little Goldens on my 1wt fly rod. We stopped at the Kennedy Meadows store for a cheeseburger on the patio and made it home before dark. Best day that we've had in a while.
Kind of surprised how few people were up there considering that the Kennedy Meadow and Fish Creek campgrounds were both open. Lot of car and people hiking from the Blackrock TR though.

Love Kennedy Meadows this time of the year. Glad you had a good time.

Looks like we are doing a backpack out of Onion Valley this weekend. It was supposed to have been a simple day hike for the wife and I but somehow blew up into something more. I sure hope the forecasts are accurate and we don't freeze our butts off.

Yeah, I've been watching it pretty close. I didn't even decide to commit to everyone that we were going until Tuesday. The nighttime temps have been creeping up. National Weather Service says that the low at Flower Lake for Saturday is going to be 39 and for Sunday night 41. If it really holds true it shouldn't be too bad. I expect lower temps tho.
