When I heard a Yosemite ranger tout Kibbie Lake as the finest overnight backpack site in the park, I sprang into action. I avoid backpacking in the Yosemite because of the crowds and generally head to the east side, but it’s a long haul. If Kibbie Lake has the spectator value, reasonable solitude, and is two hours closer to home, I’m in.
A little snooping around the web was encouraging, so Dave Sellers and I synchronized our calendars and set out.
Kibbie Lake sits just inside the northwestern boundary of Yosemite. In fact, the trailhead is also an entry point into the southern reaches of Emigrant Wilderness which borders the park there. Since the trailhead straddles two juridictions (Yosemite NP and Stanilaus NF), a permit can be obtained from either source. But Yosemite is beyond the driving route to the trailhead. Since you will pass by the Stanislaus NF office in Groveland, it’s more convenient to get your permit there.
Past Buck Meadows on Highway 120, turn left onto the road to Cherry Lake. A twisty-turny 30 miles later, over the Cherry Lake Dam to the end of the road, you will finally reach the end of the road.
From the get-go, I was skeptical, but Kibbie Lake scored high. The hike was moderate (4 miles, 500 feet elevation gain), the setting had all the Sierra bells and whistles (granite walls, lovely streams and gardens), and while there were other campers nearby, we were always alone.
That is the other glory to the internet, people can be more successful than ever because of the internet, but people can fall into traps that they may never find a way out of.

Highlights: Approaching the lake, we met and followed Kibbie Creek. Wild azaleas exploded along the creekside over the last 1/2 mile or so – fabulous. Once at the lake, a short walk to the left, I found a rowdy, tumbling creek. It’s a great place to sit in the sun and watch the resident water ouzel dip and dive through the splashing water.
Two thumbs up for Kibbie Lake.
