AllTrails Map: https://www.alltrails.com/explore/rec... Notes about the map: the map is indicative of the trip itinerary although mileage and moving time cannot be considered as reference as I often deviated from the route for filming and photography; also the moving time on the map includes all stops and breaks during the day as I stopped recording only once camp was setup for each day. Hike Notes: The final two days of the trip were all on trail, but they certainly were no less spectacular than the previous days, to complete this Sierra Backpacking trip for the memories. The section from the Lower Palisade Lake to Mother Pass and the descent across the Upper Basin is among the best backpacking the JMT offers, but to me the highlight of this section was the very enchanting evening I spent at Bench Lake, spectacular site and incredible evening light. Peaceful and amazingly enjoyable as well. The perfect last night of the year for me in the beloved High Sierras. The trail to and the walk around Bench Lake offered the best of what easy and peaceful mountain hiking can be. The video footage speaks for itself. All I could think was "I must return to the Eastern Sierra"".
