Day 7: Upper Bear Creek Meadow to King's Canyon National Park

We hiked from Upper Bear Creek Meadow (9,560', 0 mi) over Selden Pass (10,880', 4.1 mi) and down to where the JMT meets the San Joaquin River (7,920', 11.7 mi). From there, we hike a little ways into King's Canyon National Park to find a campsite for the evening (8,050', 14 mi).

The total distance was 14 miles, with a climb of 1,320' up to Selden Pass and a descent of 2,830 down the other side.
