Students staying in the Fresno area over the summer may find an escape from the heat and a change of view in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. Opportunities range from backcountry fishing to ranger-led nature walks. In this video, The Collegian Online reporter Heather Billings and her father, avid backpacker and outdoorsman Keith Billings, explore the Rae Lakes Loop, a four-day, 45-mile backpacking trip.

    hi, great footage. Our office is doing a short video clip that we are sending out to prospective students. Part of the video will highlight some of the beautiful national parks we have close to the campus, will it be possible to obtain your footage so we can include a little bit of it in our video. Thanks. Phong Yang (University Outreach Services)
