Q11. In trying to split this hike up into 6 sections, this is what I have so far. On Day 1 we are planning on catching the Sequoia Shuttle at 6 am, pickup up permits and hoping to be on the trail by 11.

Day 1 - Crescent Meadows to 9 Mile Creek
Day 2 - 9 Mile Creek to Precipice Lake
Day 3 - Precipice Lake to Kern Hot Springs (18.8 miles, +2575, -5275)
Day 4 - Kern Hot Springs to Wallace Creek Junct (12.2 miles, +3615, -80)
Day 5 - Wallace Creek Junct to Whitney Summit (12.6 miles, +4950, -850)
Day 6 - Whitney Summit to Whitney Portal

The days I am concerned about are 3, 4 and 5.

Thanks!
