I took these pictures on a 6-day backpacking trip with Ed and Alyson in the John Muir Wilderness in August 2007.

Here is a map with our route indicated.
Note that the part from Hell For Sure Lake to Filly Lake via Hutton Pass was cross-country,
and there was at least one place where it wasn't class 2 as advertised.

You can see where this area is on a larger map.

I also made a map with clickable arrows pointing in the direction of each photo.
The tip of the arrow indicates where I was standing when I took the photo.
This is a more detailed map of only the most interesting part of the trip.

You may also want to check out the zoomable Topozone map of the region.
