Waddell Beach to Berry Creek Falls (Part 1) - Big Basin State Park, CA

On June 27th, 2017, I did a day time round trip walk and hike (approximately 14 miles total) from Waddell Beach to Berry Creek Falls and back in Big Basin State Park in California. I got quite some photos from the super long trip. It was very tiring and I'm quite surprised I made it, but it was really fun. I will be splitting my photos into 3 parts. I also at some video from the trip in my vlog, which can be viewed here.

Took a break and some selfies on the awkward looking tree I took a photo of above. I know the lighting is a bit harsh on these 2 photos. I didn't have equipment for portraits since I was doing scenery that day. On these long wilderness trips, you just have to make the best with what you have because the less you pack, the better. I do not skip on wilderness survival equipment for safety reasons, so usually some photography equipment gets left at home.
