looks like we're going to kings canyon next weekend. anyone have any favorite day hikes there? i'm thinking 8 miles or less, and i especially love places that have lots of rocks to scramble and play on.

I found that the trails in K.C. were much better maintained than the wildernesses surrounding that I hiked through...
Inyo's trails were terrible...
I had heard from a couple of rangers that the last time trails were maintained to the top of Whitney... was 1930...
the National park trails are much better...
Cedar Grove is a nice car camping site but the really good stuff is beyond "roads end"...
I liked Guitar lake. -

Much of the the trailwork that is done in the wildernesses is done by teams from volunteer organizations.
