Mt. Whitney, Here we Come Again!

As my friend said, we have unfinished business. Amazingly, the mountain is still there, so we will attempt another summit of Mt. Whitney this summer. We don't have our permits yet, but our plan is to hike it in mid-July, spending the night at Trail Camp this time. The extra three miles the first day will make the second day a little easier, but I'll need to train extra hard so I can carry a full backpack a total of six extra miles. Luckily I have already started training. I hope that his year we can do San Gorgonio as a warm-up hike. That would be an accomplishment all by itself.

I hope you get your permit for that time. No snow for you guys in 2007!
