Hiking Alone in Sequoia-Kings Backcountry, California: Tablelands Loop | No Talking
I backpacked alone in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks (part of the Sierras) September 24-30 2024 starting at Lodgepole.
Check out my other video about Kings Canyon:
ua-cam.com/video/h5K0XI7q3dc/v-deo.htmlsi=1Nd0BxzG-ju_JSvu
About the route:
I created this 42 mile loop that provides access to both Deadman Canyon and Cloud Canyon, one of California’s most remote trail-accessible locations. Navigation can be challenging in upper Cloud, so this route is recommended for experienced hikers. The Tablelands and canyons are best visited in the fall to avoid thunderstorms and bugs.

    How is it going off trail? I assume it is allowed. Did you have any difficulty navigating the terrain or finding your way? I have never done any serious backpacking trips, only a few days, so I am not very experienced with this type of stuff. Would you recommend sticking to the trail? following an off trail route that I found ahead of time (like yours) or is it easy enough to navigate the terrain, that with some planning I would be fine to go off trail through the wilderness and not get lost?

    • @basinandrange
      @basinandrange 12 днів тому

      @@crispyraids1531 I think if you’re new to backpacking, there’s not much reason to go off trail, since there’s so many amazing trails to hike. Getting lost isn’t always your main concern, it’s the micro route finding. Following a gpx track isn’t enough, you need to find the safest way through the terrain. Going down upper cloud canyon for example, there are right and wrong ways to go down… you have to avoid hidden cliffs and the slot canyon carved by the river. But that’s not obvious if you don’t know how to read the terrain.

    Hello! What an awesome video, thanks for sharing! The trout catching/cooking was my favorite part!! Did you use GAIA gps or anything for this & would you mind sharing your track with me if so? I've only been using GAIA for a couple years now so definitely still figuring out all the features. The Sierra range is my most favorite & I would love to give this a go someday here soon! Also, is there anything you would have changed about this loop? Or were you overall happy with the route?

    • @basinandrange
      @basinandrange 12 днів тому

      @@TrilogyHiking thank you! Yes I use Gaia, are you able to DM me on instagram? I could send you the gpx track that way. I think the route is perfect, I love how it goes down one canyon and up the other. I’ve done the 50 mile deadman loop, and another 75 mile loop starting at kearsarge pass that goes through cloud canyon and up Colby pass. Both of those routes are on trail only, they are great but I wasn’t totally satisfied with them because they both only visit one of the canyons without doing detours. The cross country is pretty tame on this one, but the exposure on copper mine pass might be intense for some people. It’s best done in the fall, it could be tricky to get through the tablelands in monsoon season and bugs are really bad in the meadows.

    Very well done! I am an old guy at 66 and have done the JMT, but I'm always looking for other sierra hikes to do and the loops you are making video's of look like great future trips options for me. With some of the less traveled passes you cross in your videos it would be great if you could share a sketchiness factor like 1 for "easy peasy" and 5 for "you'll probably won't do that one again" so we can get a better idea of what we might get into if we were to attempt the same trip. Keep up the great work and I hope to see a video on Mitre Basin and Crabtree Pass in the future.
