Nice video! Thanks for making the trek to Big McGee. Love that trail, but spent the night at Steelhead lake which is also beautiful. Looks like I need to put Big McGee on the list.
Thanks for taking me to McGee Lake again! I was there in June to see the wildflowers and it was just gorgeous! I’m planning to go back up there to see the fall colors.
Another outstanding hike presented by Sheety33. I love the way you include close-ups of flowers and butterflies. For those of us who backpack for the total immersion in pristine nature, these little details give more of a sense of the full range of the experience, the vast and the tiny.
Another amazing video of your Sierra Nevada adventures. Great photography as usual and another spectacular hike to add to my list. Keep up the great work. I look forward to all your hiking videos!
Went there in 1986. Poor fishing, beautiful scenery. On the way up we somehow got ourselves on the wrong side of McGee creek. Trail petered out and had to cross a boulder strewn creek side, having to remove and pass our packs to each other several times. Horrible. We thought it would never end but finally was able to re-cross and hit the trail....
Very nice meeting you this morning - you have my parents thinking I’m some sort of “star.”😉 We attempted McGee Creek yesterday but there was no parking. Right now is the time to go as we could tell colors are peaking. Enjoy the upcoming hike!
Stunning! I've never been, but it looks like a great trail and possibly less crowded than others so that's good. Or maybe they were all well timed shots. Either way, I thoroughly enjoyed your trip.
Coleman Outdoors thanks! The area is stunning, and am sure if we kept going higher the scenery would have expanded to more alpine lakes. Time to go back!
Lovely hike, as usual, & thanks for sharing with all of us...340k miles on your little "mechanical mule" ! You were obviously good for each other. Bet she woulda gone to the 500 mark in YOUR stable. What is her make/model/year ? And did you ever give her a name ?? Hike On !
Curious if there are significant concerns for bears, especially if you are camping at Big McGee Lake? I plan to hike/stay there on July 1st this year, as snow allows I guess
Absolutely beautiful, very well done. But were you using a new or different camera on this one? The definition doesn't seem quite as pristine as your earlier vids . . . Cheers!

Me n my husband did many of those trails on the weekend. They are so beautiful. The wild flowers
Sun casted mountains makes for a excellent scene! Can't get enough of these videos!
Kliche travels thank you!

Camped at Grass Lake, below Steelhead, with my wife in 1974. The area is more beautiful than I remember. Must return.
The 📽️was just breathtaking ❣️Reminds me of backpacking at Hetch Hetchy and Cherry Valley Dam😊Thanks for bringing this to us all👍

Alex V thank you!
OMFG !! Thankyou for sharing this Gem !! sooooo beautiful..gotta put this one on the list .
Love your wife's hat! I bet that area will light up in the next month with fall color. It will be here before we know it. Thanks for taking us along!
Maryann Hazel I think you’re right! We will be up late September / early October for the fall color - can’t wait!
Nice man! We hope to do this on summer!

Hi Scott! It was so nice to see you at The Stove this morning. We drove up to McGee Creek to look at the turning leaves. Next we will get to hike it!

Nice lake surrounded by rugged peaks. Thanks for sharing.
There is still a good amount of snow up there for how late in the summer it is!
Good filming on nature!

@@Sheety33 yeah...maybe a good trip to break in that new vehicle!😉

Wow that looks amazing I definitely want to do this hike. Do you need permits to spend the night?
Yes permits needed for overnight stays - no permit needed for day hikes.
is that red and white peak back there?
I have camped where that red tent is going there in 2 weeks!!!

None!🤠
Amazing !!! :-)

kw19193 thanks! Same cameras...maybe you were not watching in 4K?
Do we need camping permit if we wish to camp at the lake shore overnight?
Hey buddy did you ever fish there???
How did the temp get at night? I hiked in CO last week and was getting down to 40 F at night. Anout 10k elevation.
Radnally we didn’t camp out this time but I can imagine it was below 40 at 10k!
Tim Vanderveen
340k miles? wow

Can you take a dog up there?
