GR, great info, thank you! Shame about not being able to summit but good call considering. I'm hoping to get to Guitar lake by the 2nd day so we could spend a 2nd night there if by chance we can't summit because of the weather. Try again the next day.
That's some big miles you did on the last day even without hitting Whitney.

I think with Guthooks i'm more concerned about wanting to go up Langley. If the route up is clear then no problem, but I'm not familiar with the area so didn't want to chance it without GPS. I do have the paper maps as well.

One more thing, how were the bugs!? Mosquitoes in particular, I bring a head net with me on every hike because of them, was hoping I wouldn't have to deal with them out West.
