I want to rent canoes and go canoeing. i believe Hume Lake is like 25 minutes away.

Actually, I just want to be able to go.

Hiking information.

Also, Boyden Cavern.

Hmm, while that site did mention Little Baldy (the rock I couldn't remember the name of), it didn't mention the main hike available from Dorst Campground, namely, to the relatively secluded grove of giant Sequoias (the Muir Grove??).

Of all those others mentioned there, I think we tossed about the hike to Tokopah Falls as a possibility. And I guess Zumwalt Meadow would be included in our trek to Kings Canyon.

Also ... is Boyden Cavern separate and apart from Crystal Cavern? If so, which do we choose

NA, € and I did quite a bit of preliminary activity research when making the camping reservations. Though by no means exhaustive, we did a fairly good job of finding reasonably unstrenuous, interesting and nearby hikes, plus a couple of cars-required excursions to fascinating sites beyond walking distance.

I'd hate to re-create the wheel and start all over again (especially when the desired information is likely somewhere in this very thread).

That's not the giant redwood I had in mind.

I'm not sure we posted all of the info, however, I believe my trusty Kings Canyon & Sequoia Hiking books are still in the living room.

Oh, and Boyden and Crystal are not near each other. Boyden is on the road down to Kings Canyon (and not in the National park) while Crystal is in Sequoia.
