the trip
The John Muir Trail is one of the finest hikes in North America. The route starts at Cottonwood
Lakes, makes its way up to the high point of the lower forty‑eight states, Mount Whitney
(4418m), and continues some two hundred miles to Tuolumne in Yosemite National Park.
We will need to carry everything for the trip, so carrying a full pack of around 20kg is usual.
Food stocks are re‑supplied at a number of stages making our packs lighter, but packing
carefully is essential. We’ll hike 10‑24 km per day and we can expect the unexpected, so
solid multi‑day backpacking experience is essential. Along the way the trail climbs over
4000m passes, wanders beneath high alpine peaks and traverses beautiful meadows and
forested river valleys. Over the course of the trip, we will have gained over 12,000m in ascents
(averaging about 600m per day). The spectacular scenery is combined with the generally
clement weather of California and warm (sometimes very hot) summer temperatures. This
is truly a trip of a lifetime to be remembered for years to come. We realize that not everyone
has 23 days to spare and so we also have options to complete the trail in segments over
consecutive summers, please ask us for details.
*NOTE: Due to the recent popularity of the trail, permit restrictions have increased. In order to
successfully secure permits and offer an exceptional experience, we are operating the trip in
a northbound direction. To properly acclimatize, the trip is 1‑2 days longer than it would be if
operating southbound.

Please note that everyone on this trip is required to
sign a release of liability waiver and assumption of risk
form supplied by our local operator. It is a prerequisite
before you may join the trip. This is in addition to the
World Expeditions standard terms and conditions.
Please note that this trip involves a little participation.
For example: whilst camping, putting up/taking down
tents and helping with the cooking and washing
up. It is important to understand that you cannot
compare the style of trip and number of staff with a
trip anywhere in Asia, South America or Africa.
No local payments policy: Local cash payments are becoming increasingly popular with
many operators. The policy seems to benefit the tour operators, more than the local
economies or travellers, as it avoids local taxes and transfers the cost and risk of cash
handling to travellers. In accordance with our Responsible Travel practices we have
chosen a policy not to ask for such payments.
detailed itinerary
The planned schedule is as outlined, but remember that weather, conditions and issues such as minor
injury or desire for a rest day may well vary this outline. Please be flexible and adapt to the inevitable
changes that will occur during a trip of this duration.
DAY 1Join Cottonwood
Today is a day to go over our gear and prepare for the adventure ahead. We meet at our
headquarters in Bishop, do a gear check, collect resupply bags, and pick up last minute items before
shuttling 90 miles south to Cottonwood Meadows. We’ll camp at the Cottonwood Campground
which is already at approximately 3000m (10,000 feet) in elevation - Giving us a chance to further
acclimate before beginning our adventure. *Complimentary transfer from hotels in Mammoth and
Bishop, upon request.
meals: D
DAYS 2-4Commence John Muir Trail at Cottonwood; hike to Crabtree Meadow.
To further assist in acclimation, we start off slowly and ease into the hiking with a short first day of
about 8km and 400m altitude gain taking us to camp at Chicken Springs Lake. From there, we lose
some elevation, spending the next 2 nights between 2900m-3200m as we approach Mt. Whitney.
Daily distances are approx: 8, 16, and 13 km
meals: B,L,D
DAY 5Summit Mount Whitney
We plan to make our base at Crabtree Meadows or Guitar Lake for 2 nights in order to leave our full
packs behind and focus on the big day ahead - The summit of the highest point of our journey, the
stunning Mount Whitney (4418m). The hike is approximately 23km, round trip, with an elevation gain
of approximately 1200m. We will be happy we only have our day packs to carry - And for the final
summit push, we can even leave these at Trailcrest to be picked up on our way back down. Those
who are not feeling up to the big day can easily stay in camp, soak up the scenery and relax.
meals: B,L,D
DAYS 6-8Hike to Rae Lakes via Forester Pass and Glen Pass
This is a spectacular segment as it traverses high glacial bowls far above the main river drainage
system and includes two of the highest passes on the trail - Forester Pass at 4025m and Glen Pass
at 3650m, before descending to beautiful Rae Lakes where we pick up our food re-supply.
Daily distances of approx. 12 - 21km
meals: B,L,D
DAYS 9-13Rae Lakes to Big Pete Meadow
From Rae, we head down to Woods Creek and climb up over Pinchot Pass (3690m) before dropping
into the expanse of Upper Basin at the head of the South Fork of the Kings River. The crossing of
Mather Pass (3670m) gives us a view of our route to the north before we descend the ‘Golden
Staircase’ that takes us far down into Palisade Creek and the deeply incised Le Conte Canyon. Our
next resupply comes in via mule and we pick that up at Big Pete Meadow.
Daily distances of approx. 13-19km
meals: B,L,D

Challenging
Anyone undertaking a challenging adventure
should be aware of the physical and mental
demands involved. Our challenging treks are
designed for experienced adventurers who
are seeking a real challenge. A well above
average level of fitness is required as days
can involve 10 hours of strenuous exercise
in very remote and rugged terrain, and some
walks may be exploratory venturing far off
the beaten track. Because this is a full pack
hike, we recommend that people begin
their fitness preparation immediately upon
booking. Solid work outs that are aerobic (hill
walking, jogging, swimming, biking or gym
work) of up to one hour each day is a guide
to a routine training program; interspersed
with a relatively demanding weekend hike
with a backpack that weighs approx 17
kgs or more on some occasions! The best
exercise for trekking is bushwalking involving
relatively steep ascents and descents;
multi day walks are ideal preparation for
our challenging adventures. If you can
be as fit and prepared as possible, you
will enjoy the trip so much more. It is far
more preferable to plan towards it being
a holiday than a survival experience!
For many people, this is the most beautiful section of the JMT. We stay high through the Evolution
Valley, pass by the stone shelter at Muir Pass (3645m), commence a large swing out to the western
Sierra, and gradually lose elevation until we reach our lowest point of about 2390 meters at Muir
Trail Ranch. Our resupply has been sent by post and awaits our arrival. Daily distances of approx. 13,
24, and 24km.
meals: B,L,D
DAYS 17-20Hike to Johnson Meadow for resupply
Here, we cross the Silver Divide with its small lakes and jagged peaks. Lots of smaller ups and
downs characterize this section and the really big passes are now behind us. The terrain and
vegetation changes as we near Mammoth Mountain and we hit our first ‘civilization’ and road at
Red’s Meadow. We pick up our resupply here and then we are set to tackle the final section.
Daily distances of approx. 14-23km
meals: B,L,D
DAYS 21-23Hike to Tuolumne
The days are now a lot easier with less elevation change and the miles will pass by easily. We
traverse the Thousand Island Lake area that is well known for its serenity and wonderful rock
colours. We top out on our last pass, Donohue Pass, and descend into the broad glacial carved Lyell
Canyon. It is now all downhill to our pickup in Tuolumne, followed by our shuttle to Bishop, where
our great adventure comes to an end but a lifetime of stories lies ahead.
Daily distances of approx. 16km
meals: B,L,D

am i suitable for this trip?
A Challenging trip is more difficult than any other program we offer. Each of these expeditions
has an ambitious objective or goal that necessitates cooperation, contribution and a positive
spirit from every member for it to be successful and ultimately rewarding and enjoyable for all.
Being personally very fit and healthy will allow you to cope with the rigours of the trip through
all conditions right through to the finish, and being mentally ready to embrace the variety of
experiences involved is equally important. We strongly encourage intending participants to
talk and meet with us directly as early as possible to discuss your ideas and ensure you have
chosen the right trip for your level of experience and fitness.
physical fitness
For a challenging program physical fitness should be an ongoing thing, which should start
from a base at around 4 to 6 months prior to departure and increase to build maximum
endurance, stamina, flexibility and familiarity with the anticipated routine as much as possible
by your trip commencement. Three to five hard sessions of 40 to 60 minutes of physical
exercise per week such as running, hill walking, swimming, cycling or gym work will build
excellent aerobic capacity and overall endurance and stamina which are so important in
trekking and climbing at altitude. Overnight or multi day bushwalks ( on rough, loose and

adventure travel
By its very nature adventure travel involves
an element of the unexpected. In remote
and developing countries do not expect
standards you are used to at home. Remote
areas are sometimes unpredictable and
itineraries may be altered. To get the most
out of your adventure it is important that
you are flexible, positive and eager to
take on all the challenges that arise. If you
are uncertain about your suitability for
this trip we recommend that you speak
with your consultant or travel agent.

limited to the itinerary and price.
rocky terrain) should be incorporated in your training regime also, this develops skill and
confidence on difficult terrain you will find on expedition. Rest and recovery, whilst at the
same time steadily increasing your routine and incorporating variety, are just as important
parts of the process if you intend to maintain and enjoy the regime for any duration. (We
hope that it will become a ‘lifetime’ thing.) With a solid training regime comes a more relaxed
disposition, more energy and usually better walking and breathing technique, which ultimately
leads to you having a great trip rather than some kind of survival experience. Likewise
overnight camping bushwalks encourage you to become self‑actualised and self‑reliant,
making the daily routine on trek, getting ready on time, keeping clean, helping out and so
on, much easier and less stressful. Plan early with us and prepare yourself physically on a
continuing basis right the way through, rather than putting it off for periods.
country information
The United States is a vast country. However, most of the National Parks are located in the
Western part of the country, reducing the area of interest to the walker significantly. The West
(anything west of the Rocky Mountains) consists of 10 large states. Two mountain ranges cut
the area from north to south along the lines of plate tectonics. While the Pacific Northwest has
active cone shaped volcanoes, the rest of the area does not. Here we only see the remnants
of ancient volcanic activities – in lava flows, hot springs, volcanic fissures and calderas.
climate
We do this trip from July to September to get what we consider to be the best conditions.
Most biting insects and bugs should be gone. Days, while getting shorter should be warm
with day temperatures in the 15C (60F) region and nights dipping to about zero degrees
centigrade (32F) rarely and only at the higher elevation. There may be small snow patches on
the highest passes, but not enough to warrant ice axe and crampon use. Stream flows will be
well below peak flow and most should be easy to cross. There is the possibility of afternoon
thunderstorms that may be heavy for a short time. You will be in the high mountains so there
is always the chance of snow, but prolonged storms are not common at this time of year.
Western USA is as far south as southern Europe, experiencing strong sunshine. Make sure
you protect yourself against the strong sun. At altitude, and in spring and autumn, morning
temperatures are often brisk or cold, warming up fast after the strong sun rises. Therefore
we recommend a layering system for clothing, so you can adapt to the temperature changes
without problems. *Note ‑ With the changing climate, there is a possibility of much hotter
daytime temperatures, even on the high passes. Be prepared for temperatures upwards
of 30C (86F). September is a transitional season. It tends to get cooler and there is more
potential for snow.
a typical day
This is a long trip and for many people may be the longest backcountry trip they have ever
done. Because of the length there is always the potential for things to go wrong and the
unexpected to occur. Your guide will be trained in wilderness first aid and will carry a radio
or cell phone for emergency communications. We are allowing differing lengths of time for
the segments. We will have four food drops so that the packs are not too heavy for each
segment, and if doing only part of the trip you will go in or out with the food drop. You can
expect to cover eight to twelve miles (approx 13‑20 kms) and average over 600m in elevation
gain a day. You need to be in good shape for the trip. This does not mean being a super fit
marathoner, but you should be an experienced backpacker. The days will be long and steady.
The most important thing is endurance and the ability to deal with whatever happens. Please
read the supplied equipment list carefully. The weight that you carry in the backpack will be
the most single important factor in how much you enjoy the trip ‑ the less the better! The
tentative itinerary is as follows, but remember that weather, conditions and issues such as
minor injury or desire for a rest day may well vary this outline. So be flexible and adapt to the

inevitable changes that will occur during a trip of this duration. It’s just as possible the trip will
finish before the allotted number of days. Numbered days refer to significant logistical events
(eg. food re‑supply) during the trip. Due to the difficulties of trying to map out every day of a long
journey such as this other days have been omitted from this itinerary.
dietary requirements
Provided we are advised in advance of your departure we are able to cater for vegetarian diets
and can assist with medically recommended diets (allergies and intolerances). Please ensure
you discuss your requirements with us well in advance (at least 1 month prior to your trip) to
determine whether we can cater to such dietary requirements on your chosen adventure. Please
note that options are likely to be limited in very remote locations or alternatives may be more
expensive or unavailable. There may be times when those with special requirements may need
to provide their own food. We are unable to guarantee a peanut‑free or allergen‑free trip, and
therefore, we strongly encourage that travellers with life‑threatening or severe allergies take
all necessary medical precautions to prepare for the possibility of exposure. Passengers must
travel with all necessary medications for food allergies and be capable of self‑administering
these medications.
pre and post tour accommodation
We highly recommend that our hikers stay in Mammoth Lakes before the trip commences as it is
situated at 8000ft altitude, and therefore offers a bit more acclimatisation than Bishop at 4000ft.
There are many trails to hike around the very picturesque Mammoth Lakes, and so arriving a
couple of days early is beneficial to your acclimatisation.
At the end of your hike, a transfer back to Bishop/Mammoth Lakes is included. Most people
book a nights accommodation in Bishop at the conclusion of the hike. Airport transfers are not
included.
There is a wide variety of accommodation available in San Francisco, Los Angeles and
Mammoth Lakes and Bishop, ranging from backpacker lodges to five star hotels. If you are
making your own pre‑tour hotel arrangements please advise us your accommodation so that we
can arrange your pick up (Bishop and Mammoth Lakes only).
what you carry
Participants are expected to carry their own personal belongings including sleeping bag,
sleeping mat, fly sheet or tent, food, water, as well as a change of clothes etc. This should total
around 15 to 20 kgs and be carried in a backpack of 70 to 75 litres. Resupplies will be picked
up every four to six days in order to reduce weight. One of the resupplies needs to be mailed
in, and orders for snacks, etc. will need to be made at least one month prior to departure.
Additional information will be provided upon booking.
equipment required
Specialist gear required include sturdy hiking boots and 70‑75L backpack (a comprehensive
gear list is provided in the pre‑departure information provided on booking).
special visa requirements
Many travellers to the USA (including those from Australia, New Zealand & the UK) must have
a pre arranged travel entry authorisation in place. This is obtained electronically for passport
holders from countries eligible for the Visa Waiver Program. The authorization must be in place
prior to arrival to the USA and can be obtained at the following website ‑

regarding your eligibility for the Visa Waiver Program. All other nationalities should check with
your nearest embassy or consulate.
non exclusive trips
Please note that this trip is not exclusive to World Expeditions clients and is operated by our
partners in the United States of America. Groups are pleasantly informal, usually comprised
of a wide range of nationalities (groups may be made up of a combination of people speaking
various languages) and are aimed at healthy, active participants looking for an adventurous
holiday.
vehicles & safety
During the course of your trip, we will use a variety of vehicles, all of which are fit for purpose
and the conditions encountered. It should be noted that laws governing transportation safety
may differ from those in your home country and on occasion some vehicles may not have
seat belts fitted. While game viewing within a national park could be one example, public bus
transfers or specialised transport such as ‘tuk‑tuk’s’ could be another. Where seat belts are not
provided we strongly recommend that you hold tight to a fixed part of the vehicle at all times.
what’s not included
Flights and Airport taxes
Sleeping bag, sleeping mat, and backpack
Meals not indicated in the itinerary
Items of a personal nature such as laundry, phone calls, postage, soft drinks and
alcoholic beverages
Pre or post trip accommodation, or additional accommodation due to weather delays
Travel Insurance (compulsory)
Visas

Medical treatment and evacuation charges
visas
All travellers will require a valid passport to enter the United States and your passport should
still be valid for 6 months after you return from your trip. If you are travelling on more than
one passport, please use the same passport for the entire trip. The following information also
applies to visitors entering the USA under the Visa Waiver Program (including Australians, New
Zealanders, and British):
From 1 April 2016, all travellers wishing to enter the US under the VWP will need to hold a
passport with the following criteria:
If your passport was issued before October 26, 2005, it must be ‘machine readable’ (with 2 lines
of letters, numbers and <<< at the bottom)
If your passport was issued between October 26, 2005 and October 25, 2006, it must be
machine readable and include a digital photo
If your passport was issued on or after October 26, 2006, it must be an e‑passport with a digital
photo and an integrated chip (with this internationally recognised symbol <http://www.dhs.
gov/e‑passports> on the front cover).
It is your responsibility to ensure you have the correct passport and that there are sufficient
blank pages for any visas required and for entry/departure stamps.
Many travellers to the United States (including Australians, New Zealanders and British) entering
the country require a prearranged, approved Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA).

This is obtained electronically for passport holders from countries eligible for the Visa Waiver
Program. The authorization must be in hand upon entry to the USA and can be obtained at the
following official website https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov for a fee of US$14, payable by credit or debit
card. It is very important to make payments through the official website. Visa Waiver travellers
who have not obtained approval through ESTA should expect to be denied boarding on any air
carrier bound for the United States.
From 21 January 2016 most people who have travelled to Iran, Iraq, Sudan, or Syria since
March 2011, or are dual nationals of these countries, will no longer qualify for entry under the
Visa Waiver Program and existing ESTAs could be revoked. You will instead need to apply for a
visa from the nearest US Embassy or Consulate. Certain exemptions apply on a case‑by‑case
basis. Bottom line: If in doubt, please contact the nearest US Embassy or Consulate.
Please consult your reservation consultant/travel agent if you have any questions regarding your
eligibility for the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) or the Electronic System for Travel Authorization
(ESTA).
All other passport holders should check with the relevant consul.
Please bear in mind that visas may be required for countries you are visiting en route or
transiting through on the way to your destination. It is important that you check the requirements
of all countries you will visit. Visa costs and requirements do change regularly so we suggest
you check with your travel agent or World Expeditions reservations consultant. It is your
responsibility to obtain all necessary visas.
