    Hey guys,

    I’m working on a documentary about the High Sierra Trail, and I’ve got a few gaps to fill.  For those of you who have done the trail, does anyone have a still photo or video of the Chagoopa plateau?  The photo would need to be high resolution (18MP or higher) or 4K 24fps if you have footage.   Ideally from a Sony alpha series camera.   I realize I’m asking a lot here, but ya never know!   Here’s an unlisted youtube link that shows the gap I’m trying to fill:  https://youtu.be/3UWEuHJeWKg

    I think Shug owns the patent trademark thingy on referring to himself in the third person ;)

    Never been in the Sierra Nevadas but good luck with your project

    We are doing the HSR in August.  I have decided to lug a Sony a6000 with a Sigma 18mm f1.4 lens on the trip even though I am otherwise going lightweight.  If I can help you with anything let me know.  Good luck with the project.  It is a great idea!
