(Long, Lat)
Description:
Before the trail was built up Palisade Creek and over Mather Pass, travelers had to detour a long
distance west and south from the crest, going down the Middle Fork of the Kings River to Simpson
Meadow, climbing over Granite Pass, dropping to the South Fork of the Kings, and ascending
Paradise Valley back to the John Muir Trail, a detour of almost 50 miles from the highest peaks.
