Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Is the Mt. Whitney Shelter usually open

fmeier, welcome to WhitneyZone!

One side is open. It has a wooden floor and a small rock bench. It is large enough for 3 to sleep, maybe 4.

Make sure you are aware of the need to acclimatize before you spend a night on the summit. Without acclimatization, you might be very unhappy spending much time there.
