Companion forum thread to: The Theodore Solomons Trail – evil twin of the JMT

The Solomons Trail (named after the guy who thought up the JMT) is not really a trail. This is true on a couple of levels: there are no signs designating it, no guidebooks describing it(none less than 40 years old), and no maintained trail for much of the route…

wonderful write up! thanks. I wasn’t familiar with this ‘trail’ (ahem) even. though I’ve hiked extesively in those mountains. blow downs and manzanita and hot exposed climbs are a challenge for sure. I think the TST offers more of all that than I’m willing to take on. Yep, I’m a lightweight! give me a nice trail and yes, even a bridge or two if possible.
