Thanks for the pictures Hobbes and Akichow (and for the clarification too).
Akichow, I'm trying to guesstimate how much time we'll need for the asent of Mt. Dana. Have you hike Skyline Trail (Palms Springs) or Mt. Baldy via Bear Canyon? The the trail profiles are the closest thing I've done to Mt.Dana. If you haven't, how would you compare the ascent of Mt. Dana to the ascent of Mt. Whitney (ie, Dana takes 1/3 of the time, etc). I am reading 4-6 hours roundtrip for Mt. Dana, but it doens't help much when hiking times for other mountains aren't posted as a comparison.
