    Hiking Lakes around Sequoia NP<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    \"hiker\"All the hikes listed here are to super remote alpine lakes w\/ granite mountain peaks all around. The Sierra gems are located in the steep, granite, high altitudes, that require hours of strenuous hiking and backcountry skills. These are not paved granny trails by any means. They are the total opposite.<\/p>\n

    Long, steep trails, with the freshest thin air. Know your physical conditioning (or lack thereof) before taking on a 10 mile day hike. It will wipe you out!!! Backpackers should obtain a wilderness permit before venturing overnight into the back country.<\/p>\n
