In this episode of Sierra Rec Now, we welcome back Seth Diemel from Aspen Meadow Pack Station — a lifelong guide and passionate steward of the Emigrant Wilderness.
This week, we dive into two incredible ways you can explore the backcountry this summer:
🐴 Family Horseback Trips – Seth shares his go-to routes for introducing young adventurers (ages 7–10) to the Sierra, complete with great fishing and wilderness fun at places like Toe Jam Lake and Upper Relief Lakes.
🎒 Backpacker Assist – A game-changing new service where Seth’s team hauls your gear into the backcountry so you can hike in light, explore freely, and enjoy a multi-day trip without the heavy load. He walks us through how it works — including a 4-day trip I’ll be doing this August to visit 10 alpine lakes!
Plus, we uncover some hidden gems in Emigrant that even seasoned hikers overlook — like the remote beauty of Huckleberry Lake, Big Lake, and the off-trail Hyatt Lakes basin.
If you're dreaming about a less-crowded, more personal wilderness experience this year — this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.
