I had my first experience this summer going from OV over Whitney and down. It was around 50 miles or so. In August of 2017 I would like to do that route again but this time coming back down to Guitar and going out though the Cottonwood Lakes area, taking Langley as a second 14k peak. I'm planning on doing this on a Thursday to following Friday trip. Eight nights and nine days. The plan would be to fly into Vegas and rent a car then drive to Lone Pine that same day. Getting to the trail head about 3 or so that day. I live in MN and would be looking for a possible trial partner for that trip. Meeting someone in Vegas from the West coast or even in Lone Pine. So if anyone is also looking to make that trip and need a partner, drop me a message.
