There is a nifty little site called the Sierra Nevada Geotourism MapGuide that is a great resource for finding new and interesting activities in the Sierra, no matter where you go.  Whether you’re headed up on a day trip driving through the foothills, or an over night trip, or even out into the back country, you can find hidden gems on this site if you spend a few minutes browsing before you head out.  All entries into the database were screened and reviewed.  Here is what our profile looks like.

Chris first backpacked the Sierra to Mt. Whitney in the early 90s. He completed the John Muir Trail in 1997, and founded TSX Challenge in 2011 as a way to positively impact the lives of others through inspirational backpacking experiences.
