Kevin, thanks for the tip. You are right. I'm just in it to get high enough to acclimatize before Whitney. I get altitude sickness pretty consistently at around 12,000 feet (when coming directly from sea level) and I'm going to try to spend the three weekends before Whitney on Baldy. We have a multi-day pass on Whitney and so I will camp at Outpost and Trail Camp, but I'm just trying to even the odds with some advance elevation trips.
