Hi Krishna! Your adventure sounds AMAZING.

I've been longing to put in some trail-days and I may get some time at the end of August. Ihave a couple of questions if you don't mind my prodding...

1. Did the permit you picked up at Lodgepole cover your time in the WhitneyZone? I'm contemplating doing an HST YoYo, Crescent to Whitney Portal and back over (in about 10-13 days)I'm wondering if I select enter and exit for Lodgepole will create a problem.

2. What were the most challenging spots along the trail?

3. Any long dry sections that I should be concerned with?

4. What was the prettiest section in your opinion? smile

Thanks again for the great photos and TR!!
