ok...so I am new to this forum as well as hiking. My daughter and I are hiking Mt. Whitney June 4th. It is a day hike. We are both in good physical shape...I'm a runner and she is a dancer (With much more hikes under her belt than me.) My question is actually related to the weather. I saw a youtube video of a hike the same weekend as ours but 2012...we were in a drought. What should we expect as far as snowpack?
My boots are water proof...would you suggest gators as well?
