More pictures from the Sierras – part 2

Well folks, that’s it, I’m done with the Superior hiking trail! The last few days were just nice hiking, nothing significant or noteworthy really happened, I was just chugging along enjoying my forests! So overall, I really enjoyed this trail, it’s a very pretty walk through lovely forests.  However, I would never walk it during…
