Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion High Sierra Trail: Water conditions

Salty:
I am looking at the map. There are Panther ck crossings around 4m and Mehrten ck crossing at 5 mile and then several Buck ck crossings at 8 and 9 mile. There seems to be some flat area near the jn of HST and the trail from Mehrten meadows. 9 miles in the afternoon would be a stretch for me (about 5hrs hiking) so looking at alternatives. Thanks for any advice.
