Backpacking recs Oct 9-11?
Hi everyone!
I'm hoping to go backpacking from Oct 9th-11 for my birthday :). I will likely have a group of around ~10 people, and would love to set up an awesome basecamp somewhere for Friday and Saturday and do a day hike on Saturday, then hike out Sunday. But would be open to moving camps if the route is worth it!
About the group: We are all fit and experienced backpackers who love & respect the outdoors! We would be driving from SFO and would like to keep the drive under 6hrs. I also recognize we may need to split up the group due to permitting, but if possible, would like to keep the group together at one base camp.
I've been looking at the Trinity Alps & the Canyon Creek trail, but have never been up there. Open to all recs, thank you so much!
