Backpackers along the shoreline of a Sierra Nevada backcountry lake in early morning
We set up a very pleasant camp a ways back from the shoreline of this subalpine lake. Almost all high Sierra camps are pleasant, but this spot was almost luxurious. We were not far from easy access to water, there was a beautiful view from the shoreline, and the campsites themselves were on flat ground among large trees. We even had a few fallen trees and big rocks to use as furniture as we fixed meals and ate together.
In the morning I awoke before sunrise, and I soon got up the energy to climb out of my sleeping bag and put on warm clothes. I crawled out of the tent, grabbed camera equipment, and climbed up onto a knoll from which I had photographed the previous day. From here there was a panoramic view of the surrounding terrain, much of which was still in shadow. Soon a couple of fellow early risers appeared along the shoreline with fishing gear, standing on shoreline rocks and adding a human scale to this scene.

Australia is a popular destination for young 'back packers' who come mainly from the U.K., Europe, the U.S. and Canada. Under their visa arrangements they are allowed to stay for a couple of years to work & travel in the country.

The prize for the “Most Interesting Backpack” at the Castlebar International 4 Day Walks (if there were such a prize) would surely go to this gentleman. Of course it could very well be just a case of what to do if the baby-sitter fails to turn up. However, I think it is more likely to be a case of starting them young!
Either way, I am full of admiration for this dedicated walker. This was taken at the start, and I did not see him on the 10K walk, which means he carried his precious load for either 20K or 40K on the day, and probably for all four days of the walks!
She packs this, she packs that...
