have done it several different ways/stops
last year led a group after a few acclimatization days/hikes in Mammoth first
day 1 - group went over Kearsarge Pass to Kearsarge Lakes. I accompanied an AMS-member back down, spent the night again in Mammoth, returned early am next day, and caught up with the rest of the group at:
day 2 - treeline north of Forester Pass
day 3 - over Forester. long hard day because of big snow year in 2011 so we only got as far as Tyndall Cr. Ordinarily would have pushed on to Wright Creek.
day 4 - Guitar Lake
day 5 - summit day. A second person in group got AMS with headache "10" on summit ridge, so she and husband turned around, descended to TrailCamp to await the rest of us after we summitted.
day 6 - easy partial day Trail camp to Whitney Portal. We wanted to avoid hurting our knees with a 6,000 ft descent all on day 5.
