  • Backpack Trip Because It Involves Coordinating with More Agencies and Resources (Camping, Ferry, Island Transportation)
    Backpack Catalina Distance: About 7 miles Trailhead: Avalon Permit Limit: unlimited Difficulty: Easy (rated 2) Features: Backpacking on Catalina Island is a classic Scout adventure. It requires a lot more planning than your typical Sierra backpack trip because it involves coordinating with more agencies and resources (camping, ferry, island transportation). Still, a great beginner trip can be planned, along with pleasant day hikes or beach time, and Avalon is a fun town for apres-hike souvenirs and dinner. FYI: The new Trans-Catalina Trail that runs the length of the island is really steep and rugged, so keep that in mind if you plan to utilize that trail. Additionally: Fuel can’t be transported on the ferry. Reserve your camp stoves and propane fuel from the Catalina Island Company. The ranger will deliver stoves, fuel, firewood and any other gear you need (and they provide) right to your campsite. Good Beginning Itinerary: Catalina Express ferry service Dana Point to Avalon; Airport Shuttle to B. J. TH Backpack 1.5 m to Black Jack Campground Day hike the Trans Catalina Trail; another night at Black Jack Backpack to Little Harbor via the Cottonwood Trail (5+ miles) or the TCT (7+ miles) Safari Bus to Avalon. Ferry from Avalon to Dana Point; drive home Important Phone Numbers Catalina Island Medical Center Hospital: 310-510-0700 100 Falls Canyon Road in Avalon In an emergency: Sheriff 310-510-0174 911 - call may go to Catalina Island or L.A.; indicate you’re on Catalina Island; GPS coordinates will be recorded Cell phone service @ Blackjack is great; okay at Little Harbor, but excellent from surrounding ridges Resources: Catalina Island Camping: 310-510-8368, M - F, 8 a.m.

  • Onion Valley to Bishop Pass Below Are Very Tentative Day-By-Day Itineraries
    Detailed Day by Day Description for Onion Valley to Bishop Pass Below are very tentative day-by-day itineraries. This can change for many reasons such as weather, minor injury, tired mules or unforeseen circumstances so please be flexible and go with any changes the backcountry dictates. Day 1 Onion Valley to Charlotte Lake 7.5 miles, 2870 ‘of gain, 1650 ‘of loss We enter the John Muir Wilderness at above Onion Valley and cross 11,850’ Kearsarge Pass before dropping to Char- lotte Lake, surely one of the most beautiful in the Sierra. Day 2 Charlotte Lake to Baxter Meadow 9.0 miles, 1825 ‘of gain, 2650 ‘of loss We will backtrack 1.3 miles to the John Muir Trail junction before turning north toward the narrow ridge of 11,978’ Glen Pass. The day will start in the trees, but soon climbs out of the shade to rocky slopes as it approaches the pass. You will pause at the top to celebrate the climb, but then linger to enjoy the spectacular views. Eventually we drop down from the pass for lunch at the stunning Rae Lakes and on past Arrowhead Lake to our camp by Baxter Meadow. Day 3 Layover at Baxter Meadow. Yes, it is early in the trip to be too tired and in need of a day of rest but this a beautiful place to stop and simply enjoy the Sierra Nevada or if the energy is high to walk to Baxter Pass or scramble one of the nearby peaks. Day 4 Baxter Meadow to Twin Lakes 9.1 miles, 2,100’ gain, 1,850’ loss We will spend the first half of the day walking 4.6 miles down a pleasant trail through forest and occasional meadows to Woods Creek.
