Through-Hiking from Sawmill Campground to Junction Campground on the East Side of Yosemite's Tioga Pass

Jack, Cathi, Katherine and I set out from Sawmill Campground near the Hoover Wilderness east of Yosemite for Green Treble and Maul Lakes. At Maul Lake, I proposed going on over a little pass to Spuller Lake and continuing down Mine Creek to Fantail and Shell Lake and through the old silver mining ghost town of Bennetville to Junction Campground. We agreed and Cathi joined me while Katherine and Jack headed back to the car to pick us up at Junction Campground. The bilberry had turned a scarlet red in the late August frosts making for dramatic backlighting effects. Enjoy the pics!
