Hello all,
The time has come to exorcise the demons after my failed Mt Whitney summit attempt in October 2015.

It's all very well for people to say the mountain will still be there in a month or a year or whatever, but it's a long way from Sydney to Lone Pine and not a trip you just decide to do next weekend.

And so I find myself here at the Whitney Portal Hostel, planning my 'assault' on the mountain over the next 2 days. I will be doing whatever it takes to make the summit this time,within reason of course.

I look forward to meeting fellow hikers on the MWT on Sunday and Monday, FINALLY!!
