One of the best camping trips I have ever had was a pack trip. We did this in the Sierra Nevada Mountains just north of Yosemite National Park at a place called Kennedy Meadows. After a home style breakfast, our group loaded up on horseback and rode for about three hours. We had a guide who also was our cook for the trip and a couple of others to help with the horses, mules and anything else we needed. All of the gear was packed on the mules and carried up for us. We arrived at a meadow and set up camp along a stream about half a mile from a small lake. We spent four days hiking and fishing and enjoying the beautiful setting. All of our meals were prepared for us, which was great. The horses were available for us to ride each day. If you enjoy the outdoors, I would definitely recommend a pack trip like this. I can't wait until our kids are all old enough to ride, so we can go as a family.
