43 Miles in 43 Seconds - Rae Lakes Loop

Short preview of a backpacking adventure with 4 friends on the Rae Lakes Loop in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California from July 23-26, 2022. Although distant fires gave a little haze on day 1, we lucked into beautiful weather and an amazing experience covering 43 miles and 8,000 feet of elevation gain over 4 days.

Journey Overview:
- Day 1: Road's End Ranger Station to Upper Paradise Valley
- Day 2: Upper Paradise Valley to Middle Rae Lake
