If you’ve ever wanted to see what our youth is up to, check out this video about 5 high school students setting out to hike the John Muir Trail.

This is a 6 minute piece I produced from an end to end hike of the JMT this past summer. It features 5 high school students from Chapel Hill, NC and their experience along the trail. We took 16 days at about 15 miles of hiking per day to hike all 220 miles from Yosemite Valley south to Mt. Whitney. We had one resupply at Vermilion Resort where the group cleaned out the small store there trying to stock up with 9 days of food.

It was shot on a Sony A1U with stills taken using a Canon 40D by Vimeo User: Pete Bell
