The total elevation difference for this great outdoors hiking trail is 1,019 feet, and that is about average. This is a two-ended great outdoors hiking trail with two trailheads which means you have the option of backcountry backpacking it one way if you have someone to pick you up at the other end. Of course, this is an overnight backcountry hike, 1.5 days normally, so it's a nice thing if your backpack is big enough to do the job. This is a long wilderness trail, so make sure you bring plenty of supplies. Bear Camp Trail is 11.4 miles long; it's considered a longer trek. Sometimes this wilderness trail gets really dry, so do check for current fire restrictions before you go if you plan to bring a stove or make a camp fire. The backpacking trail stays roughly within the same elevation zone the whole time, so you won’t have to worry about different climate zones along your trek.
