Anyone ever climb Mt Whitney?
I'm leaving tomorrow morning to drive up to Lake Tahoe. I'm going to hike to about 10,500ft elevation on Mt. Rose and set up camp on the 1st. I am going to get aclimatized and used to the high elevation then on the 7th I am driving down to Mt Whitney and climb it on the 8th and 9th, spending the night about 7/11 miles up the mountain.
Has anyone hiked Mt Whitney? Anyone ever been there?

I am taking the hiking trail as my mom is coming. I would prefer to do the mountineering route but my mom would be a little clumbsy with crampons and an ice axe. Luckily the snow and ice will be melted by the 8th. The snow/ice melted fast this year so the trail isn't going to tough. Basically follow the path and hike.
I want to do the JMT sometime in my life. I hiked into King's Canyon and summited Mt Goddard and Scylla. Beautiful area.

Good luck on your climb, it's not for me personally, I prefer to get high without leaving the ground. :jointsmile:
