First Sierra trip I ever did was Kearsarge Pass from Independence. Experienced the most surreal 1 AM t-storm camped
at the lake just on the west side of that pass. We were up around 11K feet with granite on 3 sides of us and the echoes and booms were unbelievable. My 16-year-old self was blown away.

I can vouch for the bears at Thousand Island Lake. We had one get into our food supply the first night of our 7-day trek
