In the Kings Canyon National Park, above the Crystal Springs campsite, you’ll find Panoramic Point … drive there. Then, there’s a 3 mile out-and-back trail to a Ranger lookout tower which is a lovely hike. Do the whole trail … or hike until you’ve had your fill, and then return.
I did this hike on day 1 of my campout, and did not see a single soul on the trail.
Lovely.
My favorite image from this hike. A dead manzanita’s branches conform to the rocks that defined it’s growth.
Love bees!
Wasps are pollitors, too?
This snag lost its top … probably due to a lightning strike, that eventually killed it.
Action shot!
Don’t know what caused this odd burn pattern.
It’s tough out there … wing damage on this butterfly.
It’s really tough out there … the butterfly lost its lower left wing.

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure. I only wish I could go there again tomorrow! More pix to follow from other trails, though. Enjoy!
