NEAR BENCH LAKE
Here we find a party camped near the famous
John Muir Trail in the Sierra Nevada of California.
Each summer Wampler Trail Trips conducts riding
and hiking pack trips into the region. The opera-
tion continues for 8 weeks and is broken into 8
sections, so a trip here can be fitted to any
vacation schedule. The Muir Trail is about 200
miles long and is within the boundaries of Yose-
mite and Sequoia-Kings Canyon National Parks
and Sierra and Inyo National Forests. It traverses
the mountains Muir called "The Range of Light."
They are beautiful and grand. Moreover, they are
hospitable and kindly. Write Box 45, Berkeley 1,
California, for details about trips into this large
wilderness area.
