  • On the opening day of Tioga road I head up to Tuolumne Meadows for a spontaneous overnight backpacking trip to lower Cathedral Lake. My fishing luck finally turns around as I catch some beautiful Brook Trout. I'll enjoy a fantastic dinner at one of the most scenic lakes that I've ever camped at!
    Hope you enjoyed, thanks for watching!

    Really enjoyed the fishing footage and cooking too! You eat well’. Ha! Reminds me when you were a kid and how everything you ate was was “delicious!” 😊Just a great job on this video and thank you for promoting compliance with wilderness regulations in Yosemite national Park!

      Fishing in June sure beats fishing in April! I was most likely one of the first people to fish lower Cathedral Lake this year.

    Great video, i really like your style, very laid-back, and you follow the rules.
    Hopefully, I'll run into you someday.

      Thank you! When it come to following rules I was inspired by a Grand Canyon river rafting trip I went on in 2023 (before I started YT). The Grand Canyon takes "leave no trace" to a whole new level and during my 8 day trip I saw zero trace of other people at the campsites. Other than footprints in the sand. It would have really changed my experience going down the river if I saw trash everywhere. So I try to pass that on. Thank you for watching!

    I spent the night at lower cathedral lake when I hiked the Jmt. It might have been the quietest night I had ever experienced..... I could hear myself blink it was so quiet. Utter silence. No wind... No other sounds at all. It was like I was wearing ear plugs...... But I wasn't.

      These are the types of experiences that make backpacking so special. A natural escape from the daily noise. Awesome that you hiked the JMT

    Why 100’ from the water?

    • @XLOutdoorsman
      @XLOutdoorsman  3 місяці тому +4

      Great question! It is a rule in Yosemite to camp 100' from water sources such as lakes or streams and also 100' from any main/popular trails. The reason for camping away from water (I believe) is to preserve water quality and to help wildlife reach the lake without running into humans. When it comes to camping near the trail its just a better experience for hikers to not have to walk right past someones tent to continue their journey.
