Hello!
My fiancé and I are looking for an easy to medium level backpacking loop or route around Tuolumne meadows in early July for our pseudo-elopement!
We are both seasoned backpackers and each did a lot of backpacking in the past, however we have not been in many years and have not been on a backpack together. So we are starting fresh together with this trip!
We want something relatively simple and not a lot of distance- just want to get out into the wilderness a bit to enjoy one another's company.
I'd say about a 15 mile loop or an out and back of similar distance would be awesome.
We want to do a 2-night stay, staying at the same camp both nights but doing a rewarding day hike with scenery on the middle day.
Solitude is obviously going to be tricky on 4th of july but the 4th is our anniversary so we wanted to make it special
We want to have an intimate exchange of vows up there on the 4th - before our "real" wedding in september.... somewhere on a day-hike, so anywhere where the people are sparse and the scenery is beautiful would be amazing!!!
Any ideas? THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!
