Did a nice 5 day backpack trip in the Golden Trout Wilderness area on the Kern Plateau. We did a lollipop loop starting at Blackrock, went up through Templeton Meadows, up and over Kern Peak, down into Redrock Meadow and back through Casa Vieja Meadow to Blackrock. Had 3 days of drizzle and light rain and lots of lightning and thunder. Didn't take a digital camera this trip, instead I took an old Olympus OM-2S film camera, it was fun.
