Want to Hike the JMT!? Outdoors.com has done a great job of breaking it all down for you!

"The lottery system is currently open from June 30 to July 6 of this year. Applying for the permit is a $10 fee, but there’s no guarantee that you’ll win the lottery. So, you may be out $10. The application deadline is Saturday, January 20. Then, the next window of dates opens, including July 7 to July 13. This process continues until the whole summer is booked."

Fly fishing in the sierras.

The whole experience was breathtaking. The guide was super informative. We were catching fish on the Tuolumne. I used some of my own gear with personally curated flies from Echo. It was a lot of fun and I learnt a whole lot. Definitely going back.

In celebration of Indigenous People’s we have an opportunity to pause and reflect on the land as it was occupied before western settlers arrived. In many cases, like here in Yosemite Valley, the Ahwahneechee ancestral land, we have to learn through the writing of those first western settlers and other white authors. In many cases it is disturbing, crass and racist or it is devoid of appreciation and lacking emotional connection. Even in the attempt to make amends with what an entire population of people have lost, spectators reduce their beauty, their boldness, their great human experience. But we hope you read through the discomfort, for loosing your history creates the opportunity to repeat it. “When we look back over the spectacle of Indian annihilation, the ruthless advance of the frontier crushing out the lives of Indians on every hand, though sacrificing a lot of white blood to achieve this end, we are moved to ask; "Did the Indians live in vain? Was all that they did, struggled for, fought for, for ten thousand years to be obliterated in three centuries,? Was it misplaced charity on the part of the victors to put their helpless victims on reservations, to be wasted by disease, hunger, and poverty, and later do everything possible to keep them alive merely to live as minorities in our midst?" These and many other questions may rise to disturb our peace of mind, but there are no satisfactory answers. We can, however, look at the record to see what the Indian achieved, and what the world took from him without giving much in return.” JOHN W.
