Something magical happens when you hike for a couple of miles in Yosemite... Brad and Holly catch up on summer backpacking adventures, including a gloriously quiet Yosemite High Sierra trek of lake hopping and peak bagging. Get all the details and tips on this two-to-three-night backpacking journey: where to camp, Volgensang Peak, lakes to visit, food to pack, and plenty more. Later in the podcast find out all about the upcoming SIFF Summerfest weekend in Sonoma (Aug 5-8): food, wine, outdoor films at wineries, live music, plus a spectacular lineup of independent films from across the globe, including The Cave. This is a Weekend Sherpa favorite film festival amid the cinematic scenery of Sonoma's rolling vineyards.
