To stay or get back on the main trail, from the junction, head southeast on a gradual climb through light forest to a junction with a lateral trail north and steeply uphill to the PCT/JMT much farther north than you want to go. Don’t take the lateral; go ahead here (southeast), upstream along the river, to campsites on a forested bench just before a junction with the PCT/JMT (8025´; 11S 334845 4121555).

DAY 2 (PCT/JMT Junction to Goddard Canyon Trail Junction, 5.75 miles): (Recap ssss1.) Follow the southeast-trending JMT along South Fork San Joaquin River to the junction of the Piute Pass Trail, cross a bridge over the river, and enter Kings Canyon National Park (campsites). Go ahead (briefly east and then southeast) and continue upstream around John Muir Rock to Aspen Meadow (campsites) and across another bridge over the river (campsites). Follow the south bank upstream past additional campsites to a junction of the PCT/JMT and the Goddard Canyon Trail. Good campsites can be found near the junction along either trail.
