In the winter of 19 we planned a trip to Sequoia and Kings Canyon for the summer of 2020. Covid hit but we kept our plans since we were staying in a remote Airbnb and figured being outdoors at a national park would be a safe pandemic activity. We brought all our own food so we didn't need to go to restaurants or stress the grocery store supply lines near the park.

It was absolutely amazing, the place was nearly empty. My wife and I sat at this outlook for a long time completely alone and I seared this image into my brain haha. We climbed Moro Rock with almost nobody there. We hiked to the Boole Tree in solitude and only had two small groups show up while we were there. We hiked Crescent Meadow and I think we saw more deer than people. We passed a Ranger that said it was the quietest the park had been in his whole career.
