Hiking the John Muir Trail Northbound 2022 - Days 1-5

I hiked the John Muir Trail (Nüümü Poyo) Northbound in July 2022 from Cottonwood Pass to Happy Isles. Due to previous travel restrictions, it was 18 months in the making. A Scot on the rocks tackling California’s Sierra Nevada mountains for the first time - a truly epic adventure!
