I was lucky enough to get a permit for Mt. Whitney this August...it's been on the bucket list for a while (and not just because my name is Whitney!). Anyway, while doing research on Whitney a couple years ago, I discovered that Mt. Young is right in the same area, and, that is my last name!! Feels like I need to hike them both! I haven't had much luck finding a lot of info on Mt. Young on Google.
Does anyone know if there is a route up Mt. Young that doesn't start at Whitney Portal, and thus doesn't require a permit? Any info is much appreciated!
Thanks!
