Jennie Lakes Wilderness: Part 2

After our night at Jennie Lake, we headed out on an 8.5 mile trek to Weaver Lake. It was a crystal clear, blue sky day and our spirits were high.
doesn't get better than that!

We only saw three other people on the trail that day and we enjoyed the solitude.

We finally arrived at Weaver Lake and were not disappointed!

Bobby didn't waste time getting busy fishing and I plopped down on a warm rock and read in the sun.



and Bobby got another trout!

eating dinner at the campsite! 
On the menu: gluten-free pasta with sun-dried tomatoes, canned chicken, and pesto. we scarfed it down!

hot chocolate by the lake. 

We finished the night with a small campfire and a restful night's sleep. We had an easy hike out the next day (3.5 miles) and saw a few deer peek their antlers out! We made it back to the car and decided to stop by and see the General Grant Tree in the grove of giant Sequoias! Those trees are insane. Some reach over 250 feet high with a diameter of 28 feet. Pretty amazing.


We greatly enjoyed our time in the mountains and are looking forward to heading back in September!

Hope you all are enjoying your summer adventures :)
