JMT with Dyed Black Pack

Here's an album of a couple pictures of the MANY I took on the JMT a few weeks ago. Was wearing my dyed black 2012 Mariposa. Had one of the lightest packs of anyone we spoke to! This pack became quite the friend–I had a packing scheme I perform every morning and am ready to go in minutes, and along the trail it was nothing but convenient and comfortable. Had an amazing trip full of great new friends, beautiful views, and some great memories. Oh and 5 bears!
