This is the eighth episode of "Tales of the Trails." The Jackson Lake Loop is about 10 miles long with roughly 2,500 feet of elevation gain. This scenic trek involved some cross country hiking, a stint on the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT,) as well as a side trip to Pinyon Ridge, one of the Sierra Club's "100 Peaks." This was a bit of a trial run with my new GoPro Hero 4 action cam, so I didn't do any talking except at the beginning, which was shot with my Sony NEX C3.
