Camping at Scenic High Country Lake in Yosemite | Catch & Cook at Young Lakes

My friends Tommy and Jason join me for a backpacking adventure to the Young Lakes in the Tuolumne high country. We'll be fighting off the mosquitoes for most of the trip, but the views and fishing make it all worth it. We'll also enjoy some Trout as we catch and cook our dinner.
The Tuolumne area has proven time and time again to be my favorite area in Yosemite National Park and I'm glad I got to share my experience with a couple buddies!
Hope you enjoyed, thanks for watching!

Fish looked good, but where are the jalapeños? Nice glasses strap, too.

[@XLOutdoorsman]

Jalapeños would have been a great addition to the mango sticky rice

[@really7832]

Great video man! Have really enjoyed watching your content the past month or so. I’ve got some trips planned into Ansel Adam’s and emigrant wilderness this year, this stuff just gets me so much more excited.

[@XLOutdoorsman]

I’m glad you enjoyed! You’ll have a blast in those wilderness areas. I love the Ansel Adams area. Have a fishing trip planned there soon

[@really7832]
