    Actually there are 7 lakes in the Big Pines basin. Also an amazing glacier beyond that rock formation called Temple Crag

    If you like hiking to alpine lakes without a strenuous path, check out the Ruby Mountains in northeastern Nevada. They're gorgeous.

    Where are you from originally? I'm from MN and I can't seem to find flights to bishop airport. Says united has flights directly from Denver but couldn't find any still. If anyone can answer that'd be lovely

    Hi, awesome vid! Question:
    So I'll be hiking up to the 2nd lake with 5 other people. 2 of them are more experienced (though one hasn't hiked in awhile), the other three are intermediate or average. It will be my first time hiking in such long-distances. I've read that it has snowed up to 6 inches 4 days ago, and it looks like it'll be the same tomorrow (which is when we are going). I believe none of us have traversed through snowy conditions such as this.
    Would it be possible for a beginner, such as myself, to hike up to the 2nd lake in these conditions? I am aware that the total hike for all the lakes is around 16ish miles. We only plan to go to the 2nd lake and we will be heading back afterwards. We won't be camping.
    I've hiked smaller distances before, less than 2.8 miles in not much steeper slopes. The conditions in that hike were much hotter than what I've read. I've also camped out at Joshua Tree for a couple days and climbed some of their larger rocks. I also camped out in another desert (forgot the name) and traversed through it's dark and enclosed cave system. In regards to snowy terrain, alls I did was sled down Mountain High. That's the extent of my experiences.
    To be honest, a slight bit nervous? As I've read in some of the reviews in Alltrails.com, even experienced hikes said it was difficult. Still excited though! I've seen videos about it, such as yours, and it looks beautiful and not as steep.
    Thanks!

      Hi! Thanks for watching this video. So nice you get a chance to visit these beautiful lakes. In my honest opinion, I don't think this hike is good for beginners especially in the snow. Snowy conditions can be a lot more tricky/dangerous if it's slippery. If you don't have experience hiking often, this hike might be more doable if you do a lot of cardio or have good endurance. If you do decide to go, I recommend bringing A LOT of water, keep warm, and pack lightly as possible. Any extra weight can add up and get tiring. Goodluck!!

    Overnight backpacking. Is it mandatory that we bring a bear containers to store our food? Or is it only highly recommended only?
    I’m getting all kinds of answers. Thanks!!

      If you are planning to camp overnight, you do need a permit. They get reserved months in advance.

    • @TacoPete
      @TacoPete 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The south fork of Big Pine Lakes is a lot easier. It’s an hour shorter and less of an incline. There are a few lakes that are almost as blue and beautiful as the 7 north lakes.

  • @MarlonAndGabriela

    Cinder Cone in Lassen VNP is one of the best hikes in CA! But Big Pine is an amazing area and not as popular because of Yosemite and Sequoia.

    I'm pretty sure you struggled so much on this hike because you didn't take the altitude into account. If you drove up from LA you would have needed days to acclimate to the altitude. Just my 2 cents. Awesome video though!

    I feel like you weren't prepared, didnt bring water, unaware of the altitude. You provide 4 basic facts that apply to any hike. I guess my point is.. if you're good at editing and spend time building a channel, people (including me) will watch your videos
