The western end of the High Sierra Trail starts at Crescent Meadow in Sequoia National Park, known as the Gem of the Sierra. Before setting off, hikers must collect wilderness permits in person from Lodgepole Visitor Center, about 16 kilometers away. Permits should be booked ahead on Recreation.gov, with a few walk-up permits released at 1 PM the day before. Permits must be collected by 10 AM on departure day and carried while hiking. Tharp's Log is a hollowed giant sequoia once used as shelter by early explorers, named after Hale D. Tharp, the first non-Native American to enter the forest. The Crescent Meadow Loop is a fairly easy route past giant sequoias and through meadows.
En 3.3 km lång rundrutt från California för att gå, springa eller cykla, med 58 m stigning.
