Sequoia National Park – Alta & Panther Peaks
Nice hike Zé! i've been wanting to do Alta and always figurered i would do it in spring when there is still snow, but i liked the way it looked in summer. gotta give it a try. thanks for the info on Panther Peak and Tharps Rock too. i love an added bonus and Tharps looks like a fun little challenge. it's good to hear the altitude didn't bother you.
