Canyonfire:
Tuolumne Meadows
Although I had been to Yosemite Valley three times, I had never
seen Tuolumne Meadows, the upper regions of Yosemite National Park
north of the valley. Much beloved of Yosemite fans, Tuolumne Meadows
is crossed by the Pacific Crest Trail, the West Coast's answer to
the Appalachian Trail, and sports Tioga Pass at the east end, namesake
of my first backpack, the Kelty Tioga (I always wondered where the
name came from). The weekend of Sept. 12-14, 2003 my chance finally
arrived. I was surprised to be able to reserve a campsite only a
week earlier.
