Outpost or Trail Camp Wiff 03/27/24 07:31 PM
Hi all. I have always done the overnight trip the same, but wondering if there's a better idea.

I always:
Day 1: Hike from Portal to Trail Camp.
Sleep at Trail Camp.

Day 2: Leave gear at Trail Camp and summit, return to Trail Camp to get stuff, and hike back to Portal.
That day 2 is a doozy. A friend thinks it might be easier to sleep and leave gear at Outpost, so there's less to carry for a mile and a half or so.
I think that that will just make the second day that much longer.
What say y'all?
Thanks.

Everest joins Mt Whitney in the 5.5 mile high poo bag club! WanderingJim 03/25/24 02:32 PM
(or 2.75 mile high poo bag club in Whitney's case)

Of course, most Everest climbers will have Sherpa guides/porters to carry the bags down. So, hopefully less bags left along the trail like on Whitney.
