Hello,

I am looking for a hiking partner(s) for a summit hike during the week of Sept 16th, 2012.
I presently do not have a permit. This would be my first time. I did Half Dome last month and plan to do a rim to rim hike of the Grand Canyon in October.

Any interest - please email me at phxmtnpreserve@hotmail.com
Thanks!
Kat

Welcome, Kat!

For the permit situation, you can start by reading the Unused Permits thread.

There is a chance I will be in the area then and would certainly be up for another hike up Whitney! I could let you know as time moves closer.

Hi Nyker -
Yes, please do keep me posted!

I have the window from 9/14 - 9/23 open, and hope to get a walk-in permit at some point during that time. I just saw the post about the trail closure, but fortunately it should not affect my trip.

Just to clarify as well, I would like to do an overnight trip, not a one day summit. Thanks!

Maybe I'll see you up there. I'll be coming from Horseshoe Meadows on the 14th and exiting the 18th. Good luck getting a permit and trip together!

So, I found a hiking partner - now we just need permits!!
Wish us luck.... and if the weather holds next week like it was this week, it will be beautiful!
We are shooting for an overnight on the 19th, and summit on the 20th.

Thanks!
Kat
