Mt Whitney Aug 15-18, 2011

Post by mark68 »

Our group of three has one more permit available ($15.00) to hike Mt Whitney. We are meeting up in Lone Pine and staying in a hotel there (13 and 14th). We will start at the Whitney Portal trail head on Monday morning (Aug 15)and hike up 6 miles to Trail Camp (12,000 ft). On Tuesday or Wednesday (weather permitting) we will hike the remaining 4 miles to the summit (~ 14,500 feet) and return to Trail Camp. Then we'll hike out the next day. If you are interested in going with us, are in good shape, and have experience backpacking to high (er) elevations please contact me. ~Mark
