Photo by @michaelclarkphoto // Cathedral Peak and the surrounding area reflected in Upper Cathedral Lake at sunset along the John Muir Trail in Yosemite National Park, California. A few years back a friend and I blitzed though a huge section of the John Muir Trail in just four days going ultralight and doing the equivalent of a marathon every day. It is one of the most enjoyable areas to backpack in that I have ever seen. #johnmuirtrail #sierras #california
