- Join me on an adventure of a lifetime as I hike from Onion Valley to the breathtaking Kearsarge Pass. Get ready for stunning views of the Sierra Nevada mountains, alpine meadows, and crystal clear lakes. This moderate hike offers a challenging climb, but the rewards at the top are well worth it.
Experience the rush of reaching the summit and taking in the panoramic vistas. The feeling of accomplishment as you reach the top of Kearsarge Pass is truly indescribable. This is a hike that will stay with you forever.
Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to explore the great outdoors and challenge yourself. Pack your bags, grab your hiking boots and let's hit the trail! This is a journey you won't want to miss.
Filmed in August of 2022 in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

I did this hike with my 14yo son last July .we flew in from Australia and was supposed to hike in Yosemite but the washburn fire had just started .I was very proud of my son who hadn't done any hiking before and only arrived in USA 2 days before . He struggled the last mile and we had to stop every 100m for him to rest but we made it. Went back down and camped at flower lake . I have a 3ft long print on my wall of flower lake in the morning that I took
Thats an awesome trip for you. A lucky son
Done this many Times before Cell Phones & Home Computer were available. NIce !
Ahhh…thank you for this taste of summer in the middle of winter. Simply sublime. I’m giddy with excitement for how awesome the streams will be this year after the monster storms we’ve had.
Going thru my dads old hunting cabinet I found an old USGS map of the Kearsarge area with his pencil marks. He marked out the trail he backpacked and the places he camped at sometime in the 70s. I plan on doing some backpacking starting next year. I intend to recreate his trip. Kearsarge Pass>Charlotte Lake>Gardner Pass>Gardner Creek>60 Lakes Basin> Rae Lakes>Glen Pass> then back out over Kearsarge Pass.
Best way to start my week! Thank you!
1st video view ever, going in 2 wks - great Introduction!
Thanks for a mid-winter respite in the summertime Sierra!
Scott you're the best guy! Thank you for this video. I'm gonna do this trail with my friend on Labor Day weekend...Can't wait
Scott also I looked up the map from the Trail Head to the Pass is only 4.1 miles...so basically 8.2 roundtrip. I was wondering how you got to the 11 mile number?
Hope you enjoy it! One of my favorite eastern Sierra trails.
I hiked that pass many years ago. Beautiful!
Thank you great video 👏👏👏👏👏
Definitely one of my favorite trails. Great footage.
Thank you!
I can’t wait to hike this trail 🏔️🥾🏕️ … Hurry Summer !!
Something is meant to be found, and I am glad that I came across your video. As someone who was making adventure videos on CZcams and also lost the drive, spirit, soul, and finding this brings all the greatest feelings that I once knew. Thank you so much for bringing and sharing this with us, because it showed me what I have been missing in my life. Thank you and wish you good luck on your journeys. :)
Thank you!
Hermosa lugar para septiembre pienso viajar a ese lugar
I saw these lakes on Gaia and planned on going up there this summer.
So many lakes to explore!
Dying to try that pass someday - High on my bucket list!
Don’t pass it up!
Beautiful. Your passion for being out in that beautiful wilderness shows in your voice.
Wow, thank you!
Great hike ! Thanks for sharing- I subscribed your channel
Another stunning video!!! I can't wait to get out & hike! Thank you for all of your beautiful amazing videos!!!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Gorgeous! If I lived close by, I'd hike it all the time too- never gets old as it changes every time. 😀
Agreed!
I've hiked up Kearsarge several times and the trail is great, but sometimes parking is a hassle even in the middle of the week! Cool video!
Looks like a beautiful place to hike. Thanks for the wonderful video.
What a content, what a magnificent work!!! Brilliant video, so much effort has been put into this video that it is easy to see in every shot my friend!
Thank you!
Thank you for the all the hard work on your videos! Cheers from Colorado!
Very nice video, Scott. Drone shots were a nice way to begin the video. Have you hiked down to the lakes. I was thinking of doing to reverse route from Bubbs Creek to Kearsarge and hike up to the top of the pass for either a sunrise or sunset view. What's it like hiking from the western side up to the top?
Thank you! Yes, been up and over to the lakes (July of 2023 I believe). Great experience and will be headed back this summer. Just love the area so much. Hiking up the western slip of Kearsarge is short and sweet, and snow free in the summer.
I really enjoy you videos. Keep on making them. I was wondering what size pack you are using? Thanks
Thank you so much! Using a 35L currently from REI.
Mid-summer hike to all of these spectacular wild trout lakes - and no fishing? Perhaps you did..., 😊 but simply chose not to reveal it here in this video. Anyway, awesome content as always Scotty!
I need to go back and fish the Kearsarge Lakes!
How did the membrane solutions filter hold up?
Very well! Good product.
yes the view is amazing indeed !
i even camped at bullfrog lake. i know..... but i did anyway !
Love it!
Nice video amazing place do you thing middle of september is bad time to do this trail? thank you
Middle of September is the best!
We make the hike this past week we just make it rigth after heart Lake the altitud make us feel bad a bit and we decided to go back but was amazing, we are going to make it again in the summer 100% to kearsage lakes thank you for your help
What settings do you shoot in? Is this with a gopro
I agree. The grade on this trail made for an easier incline, although I stopped at Flower Lake to camp and didn't finish the last part. The pass is still on my bucket list. 🪣
