This strenuous 14.7 mile hike has 14 + stream crossings and is one of the longest loops in SNP. It is also very pretty. Bring water, food, dry socks. Poles and shoes that will work for streams and hiking are highly recommended. Make a reservation to camp at Big Meadow campground June 29 and 30, or carpool from Richmond.
