Nice job man.  How long did it take?  How high did you start your hike from?  Did you do Mt. Whitney or somewhere near Mammoth?

Thanks EDB.   7.5 hours up, an hour on the summit, and 6.5 hours down. One cat in the group fell apart on the climb and I was the most experienced one there so I stayed with him and we summited together. We started at the Portal.  It was in fact Mt Whitney.

I was at 7200 ft. above sea level this weekend but I was in my jeep

   You lazy bum!


Thanks Wiggs. Sorry I missed you last month in Vegas.

the start of the trail is at 8,300 ft up for those of you that are interested.  You must have a permit, or that freaking ranger who hides around Mirror Lake will stop you.  Did you get the permits in advance?   That first part to Lone Pine Lake kicked my ass when we did it.  Then we rested at Mirror Lake for like an hour  

Impressed you went all the way in one day.  Many people stay at the Trail Camp which is around 12,200 feet or so. And you had great weather!!!!

Thanks Ron.     We had permits but the ranger was not there. Nice weather indeed. Two nights earlier they had snow and sleet about 13,600. Mid 30's on the summit when we were there.

Great place to visit and Death Valley is right next door.

Wish we could get mountains without snow, but no one here can be bothered to wipe it off them.
