Watch: Exploring the John Muir Trail from Yosemite to Mt. Whitney

We love the feeling of being "almost there". The hard work of the day is reaping its rewards as anticipation builds in search of the perfect camp site.

Watch this group of friends hike the John Muir Trail from Yosemite to Mt. Whitney to inspire you to start planning your next outdoor adventure. Both are incredibly stunning places that boast a broad range of natural wonders and opportunities for any outdoor adventurers, so sit back, relax and enjoy some of the most pristine landscape of North America.

During the summer of 2011, a group of friends spent 25 days hiking the 219 mile long John Muir Trail. This is the first glimpse into their journey, accompanied by the single, ALMOST THERE by Opus Orange.
