Hello!
I have a chance to do a day hike in Sequoia National Park during the first week of April. I have been doing some research both here and on the NPS site for day hikes, but it’s a bit overwhelming.
As I mentioned, I am looking for a recommendation for a day hike, anything up to Class 2 will work since my wife will be with me. Ideally looking for something less than 12 miles roundtrip. We are staying in Visalia, which is about an hour away from the park. A friend of mine who lives out there recommended seeing the General Sherman tree, and just staying in that area, but would prefer to do something a bit more away from the droves of tourists.
My biggest concern is the weather—I’m not quite sure what to expect in April. From what I’ve read online, the weather in the daytime can be anywhere from the 30’s to the 50’s. Does this sound correct? Do we need to bring snowshoes?
Any advice you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!
Regards,
-Ryan
