High Sierra Camp; Glen Aulin, 21-24 July 2002.
This was our most recent hike of the High Sierra Camps. At one time or another we have hiked all the camps at least once and in the company of friends (Treigers, Ellmans, Rosenblatts, Shepards). We would usually spend overnight at Tuolumne Meadows to become accustomed to the altitude (8,600′). The camp, just off Tioga Road, offers tent cabins (sleep 4), a good restaurant, a beautiful setting and is a great place to start hiking the back country. The distance between camps is about eight miles. As to elevation, Merced Lake is the lowest at 7150′ and Vogelsang the highest at 10,300′.
