Sentinel is always a great location. Bikes and hammocks are worth the hassle of transport.

Cedar Grove has been a family tradition since 1963! And now I’m bringing my grandkids! My own children saw the awesomeness in the majesty of the mountains in the Sierras. And have created their own memories with their kids. It’s the best of the best!
