Sierras Adventure to Rae Lakes (BBV)

The backpacking tradition is still going strong with some of the old TELUS/Accenture crew. On this trip, we started off in Las Vegas....got outta there quick (with of course a pit stop at In n Out Burger before leaving town), and drove thru Death Valley and finally to Lone Pine CA. We did a good deed helping out some fellas in need that first night and enjoyed reliving Darren's old memories of past family vacations at the Best Western! Next morning, grabbed our permit and then set off for Onion Valley Trailhead. Hiked from Monday morning to Saturday morning, seeing some of the best scenery the Sierras has to offer. Night 1 was spent at Matlock Lake, Night 2 at Kearsarge Lakes, Nights 3 & 4 at Rae Lakes, Night 5 just beneath Kearsarge Pass. After 6 days in the backcountry, we crushed a few great meals in Lone Pine and Las Vegas...and then flew back home tired and sore and full of blisters...been a few days now, and the pain is nearly gone...and already looking forward to the 6th installment of this fine tradition!
