    Tips

    Hiking

    This is the large main meadow the area is named after the 1960s president. Ignore the misleading 'Tip' from the Komoot freelance editor 'Andrus' below who was never here and did poor research. The Kennedy Meadow he refers to is several hundred miles further south, south of Lone Pine on the eastern/southern side of the Sierra.
    There are however indeed campgrounds and a resort nearby for resupply, and for those who want to stay for more than just a hike. The Pacific Crest however is several miles up the road at Sonora Pass, or two days hike up Huckleberry Trail.

    Hiking

    Kennedy Meadow is known among Pacific Crest Trail hikers as the separation point between the drier Southern California region and the high passes of the Sierra Nevada in Northern California. There's a campground and resort nearby for those who want to stay for more than just a hike though.
