Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Nighttime route finding north fork route

I found the e-ledges, relatively straightforward in the dark. It is a heavily used route. The ledges zig zags a bit so, just take your time - if something looks hard you probably arent looking at the route. There cairns and well used footpaths.

My first time up I did lose the route between lower and upper BSL. It was a snowy foggy night and ended up being a good thing I turned back as a storm moved in but in my opinion that area is harder to navigate the CORRECT path in the dark. Especially if there is snow.
