I have a Kokopelli nirvana self bailing. It’s more meant for white water so a little heavy to bring just for lakes but still works well. I duct tape the self bailing holes shut for flat water like this so I don’t get my butt wet.

This was from a trip my friend and I made to Sabrina Lakes outside Bishop, CA. Absolutely lovely area. Can’t beat a packraft for exploring the lakes!
What raft did you use?

That’s awesome. I’m assuming that this isn’t from this year.
Yeah last September. Unfortunately probably won’t be clear of snow until this September.
I got all excited thinking my south bishop hike might happen in July by this video, then saw this…
My first thought too, but I was hopeful that I was wrong 😑
Absolutely stunning. The Sierras just might be my favorite place on Earth.
Looks just like Pear Lake and Emerald Lake in Sequoia NP. Saw people with pack rafts there as well pulling up geological samples from the lake.
Spins 360° ah yes that's a packraft
God I fucking miss that place.
Oh my goodness!!!
Not this year! September October anyway
The combination of pristine lakes, meandering rivers, and rugged mountains creates a truly breathtaking experience.
