Tuolumne Meadows 21. - 22.8. 2010

This weekend I went to Yosemite - Tuolumne meadows with one meetup group - Bay area mountaineering. It is always great to go with this group, which is fun and full of interesting and nice people. The first day I wander around Spillway lakes, the second one I tried to reach Unicorn peak. Unfortunately the last couple of meters were above my climbing ability, but even without reaching the top I had great weekend.

Prvni den jsem stravila prochazenim kolem Spillway jezer, druhy den jsem se snazila vylezt na Unicorn peak. Nanestesti poslednich par metru bylo nad me horolezecke sily, ale i tak bez dosazeni vrcholu jsem mela super vikend.

John Muir Trail 17.7. - 3.8. 2010

John Muir trail is hiking trail that starts in Yosemite National Park, and continues 215 miles through the Ansel Adams Wilderness, John Muir Wilderness, King's Canyon National Park, Sequoia National Park, and ends at the highest peak in continental United States, Mount Whitney. I discovered backpacking in Sierras Nevada mountains a couple years ago and I just love it. JMT was great opportunity to go for longer trip, to see how beautiful the mountains are in the further destinations where my weekends expedition can't reach. Eric and I , spent 17 days on our feet, but it felt like much less! The scenery was beautiful, the weather great, we went only through one afternoon storm and one day with showers and night with hails. The one downside were mosquitoes, especially in the first half. We ended up our trip sleeping on Mt. Whitney, where was that day so calm weather and beautiful sunset that we couldn't wish for anything better.

John Muir trail je cesta ktera vede z Yosemite NP, a pokracuje 344 km zkrz Adams Wilderness, John Muir Wilderness, King's Canyon National Park, Sequoia National Park, a konci na nejvyssim vrcholu kontinentalnich USA, Mt. Whitney. Objevila jsem backpakovani v horach Sierra Nevada pred par lety a nemuzu se toho nabazit. JMT byla dobra prilezitost pro delsi vylet, videt jak nadherne hory jsou ve vetsich vzdalenostech, kam me vikendove expedice nestaci. Eric a ja jsme stravili 17 dni chozenim, ale pripadalo nam to jako mene! Vyhledy byly nadherne, pocasi uzasne, prozili jsme jen jednu odpoledni bourku, jeden den s prehankami a noc s kroupami. Jedinne minus byli komari, hlavne v prvni casti. Nasi cestu jsme ukoncili na Mt. Whitney, kde bylo ten den velice klidne pocasi a nadherny zapad slunce, ze jsme si nemohli prat lepsi zakonceni.

Kings Canyon 29. - 31.5. 2010

I visited Kings Canyon only once before and for just a short hike, so this year Memorial Day weekend we - Petra, Miro, Pavel and I - decided to go and explore this beautiful part of Sierras mountains. The first day we hiked up about 6 miles from the bottom of the canyon to Frypan Meadow, the second day we planned to make a day trip to Kennedy pass, but since the trail was covered by snow and we couldn't find it, we just hiked up small hill for better view and then went back to our campsite and relaxed. The third day we walked back to the car using another trail than the first day. On the way back we stopped at Chili's for dinner.

Byla jsem v Kings Canyonu jen jednou a to jen na kratkou turu a tak tento rok na prodlouzeny vikend jsme - Petra, Miro, Pavel a ja - se rozhodli prozkoumat tuto krasnou cast hor Sierra. Prvni den jsme vystoupali asi 10 km ze dna kanonu do Frypan Meadow, druhy den jsme meli naplanovano jit na denni turu na Kennedy pass, ale protoze cesta byla pod snehem a my jsme ji nemohli najit, tak jsem jen vylezli na maly kopecek abychom meli lepsi vyhled a pak jsme sli zpet do naseho taboriste, kde jsem odpocivali. Treti den jsme se vratili k autu jinou cestou nez prvni den. Na ceste zpet jsem se zastavili v Chili's na veceri.

Rafting - Kaweah River 22. - 23. 5. 2010

This year group of 18 went for 5th annual rafting trip at IV+ class Kaweah River near Sequoia NP. As usually we had great time!
Amy, Libor, Jared, Justin and I left on Friday so we can use Saturday for hiking. We went to see Marble Falls in Sequoia NP. In the evening we enjoyed BBQ and campfire while the rest of our group slowly arrived.
The weather this year wasn't the best. It was quite cold and cloudy, but we had great time on the river anyway. None of our rafts ended up up side down, even though each boat lost at least one member in the water for a while.
The weekend finished in restaurant in Los Banos where we had so much food that we almost couldn't leave the place!

Tento rok 18-ti clenna skupina jela na 5. vyrocni sjizdeni divoke vody na Kaweah reku, ktera ma IV+ tridu, pobliz Sequoia NP. A jako obvykle to byl uzasny vylet.

Pocasi tento rok nebylo uplne idealni. Bylo docela zima a pod mrakem, ale i tak jsme si sjizdeni poradne uzili. Zadna z lodi se neprevratila, i kdyz kazda skupina ztratila alespon jednoho clena posadky na chvili ve vode.
Vikend jsme ukoncili v restauraci v Los Banos, kde jsme dostali tolik jidle, ze jsme pomalu nemohli ani odejit!
