Nobe Young - Freeman Creek Loop

This is a loop ride I did on Saturday, April 21st, 2007, in the southern Sierra Nevada, between Johnsondale and Camp Nelson, California. The Freeman Creek Grove of giant sequoia trees was my ultimate destination, and I had planned to include a ride over 9300' (2818m) Slate Mountain, but the intended loop was unridable due to lingering snow above 7500' (2273m).
