Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Forester Pass

Does anyone out here have any relatively current pictures of Forrester Pass?

I am also looking for recent information on Forester.

Here is a blog entry from someone doing the PCT. I am sure there has been a lot of melt since this entry but It is the best I have found so far.

The posting shows to be July 1 but I think his day 54 is June 18 since he appears have started the trip on April 25.

Thanks, Trey.

I checked the second picture, and it shows a date of June 16, 2017 6:43:26AM

This is the tool I used: Jeffrey Friedl's image metadata viewer. It sure comes in handy every once in a while.

There has been a lot of hot weather in the past 3 weeks. I am sure the terrain is much better by now.

Found a friend last night in men's BB league that lives is Vegas. I got him to drive me to LP and pick me up later for $200.00 RT. Air Fair from MPLS is now at $250.00 RT. I might make a return trip next month.

Here is another blog entry from someone who went over Forester on June 30. It has good pictures and details of the trail on both sides.
