In Sep­tem­ber of 2009 I hiked for 11–12 days through the High Sier­ras fol­low­ing the Sier­ra High Route. We start­ed at Mount Whit­ney and made up our own route to con­nect with the start of the Sier­ra High Route at Road’s End. We did this because we thought it would be fun to start on the Mountaineer’s Route on Mt. Whit­ney and logis­ti­cal­ly it was eas­i­er because we fin­ished on the East Side of the Sier­ras. This made it eas­i­er to get back to the car. The hike was real­ly fun. I love hik­ing in the fall and love the Sier­ras. It was a great time to be out with a lot less peo­ple and get­ting a lit­tle bit of fall foliage and cool, crisp nights.
