BIG SOUTH FORK YAHOO FALLS OVERNIGHT BACKPACK LOOP 4-6-13

I’ve been on this trip a few times and thought I’d put up a rough itinerary of the mileage and some high points. It’s a great beginner trip because it isn’t overly strenuous or high mileage.  It’s just about perfect to get someone new out there and give them a taste of the Big South Fork.  Water is readily available pretty much anywhere on this hike too.  I really enjoy going to this area at least once a year and it’s just as awesome in the winter too.
