I would like to ask for your suggestions on some relatively easy, but pretty hikes that offer good views, fishing opportunities. Ideally a loop so we can go start and finish at the same spot without going over the same trails.
My dad and I used to hike around Mammoth/Thousand Island Lake and adjacent JMT, but he is older now and we need to take things easier. Additionally, I plan on taking my 8 year old with us to have some bonding time.
We would be looking to do 5-7 miles per day, so that kid is not too exhausted and we have plenty of breaks. We will rely on fishing to supplement our food, so the trail needs to be by river/stream/lakes.
Would be looking to spend 2-3 nights and then head back. We are in San Diego so it will involve a fun car trip :)
Ideas, suggestions?
