So long story short i have 2 additional passes to summit Whitney on Saturday the 13th of August. This would be my first time going to the inyo-forest and my first time at mt whitney. i am super excited just sucks that my 2 friends backed out last minute. Any who i am coming up from the bay area, probably going to drive up to local area early friday or possibly thursday night because i want to check the place out too. Planning on starting hike at 12-1 in the morning i would like to catch the sunrise up there. If anyone wants to join please write back or even better email me back at lamamesui35@gmail.com because i rarely check my messages on whitneyzone. But if you are camping and have an extra spot for me on friday the 12th of august and you need a permit then its a win win for both parties =) Thanks again and happy trails!!!
