Traverse over 50 miles through John Muir Wilderness and Kings Canyon National Park to summit one of the burliest, intimidating and inspiring mountains in the Sierra, Mt. Goddard (13,560"²). Our 5 night, 6 day route includes more than 10 miles of off-trail trekking, crossing two ~12,000' passes.

If Yosemite Valley is for tourists, Tehipite Valley is for true adventurers. Immerse yourself in a valley of mythical proportions on a 5-night, 6-day backpacking trek that will take you into the most majestic, powerful and remote valley in the Sierra. You've heard of Half Dome? Discover Tehipite Dome, the largest dome in the Sierra, with a sheer 3,500"² rise from the valley floor, and venture onto its ledges. Enjoy a layover day camped along the wildly exuberant Middle Fork of the Kings River with time to explore cascading waterfalls, swimming holes and native petroglyphs in the serene wonder of a valley filled with solitude. This 45-mile Y-shaped trek includes two base camps, roughly 4 miles of off-trail trekking, and a 3,500"² descent in just over 2 miles. Reaching Tehipite is not for the undetermined! Our route is rugged, overgrown, full of down trees and at times barely discernable. Yet all who have ventured into the Tehipite Valley would agree that the view from it's rim and sense of wonder from it's floor are worth every step.
