Journey to center of Sierra Nevada Wilderness

I recently came across a USGS map showing DNR or “distance to nearest road”. As populous as California is, we place 4th behind Wyoming, Montana and Utah (Alaska never counts in superlatives!). Though only thirteen air miles from a road, the California location is a three day walk from our home in the eastern Sierra.
