Hey guys, just wanted to share some pics from my July 1st climb to the top of Mount Whitney. Thanks to all of you who responded to my previous post with questions about the climb. You can view my entire album from the trip online at my website, ChrisLathen.com here is the direct link to the album: Mount Whitney July 1st Picture Album



"But our trip was different. It was a classic affirmation of everything right and true and decent in the national character. It was a gross, physical salute to the fantastic possibilities of life in this country-but only for those with true grit. And we were chock full of that."
-Hunter S. Thompson

Christopher, great pictures! It looks like you and your brother did your climb in great style. I was happy to see few pictures in the chute....you were sticking to the business!!!

How did you guys do with the altitude?

Your photos show this time of the year so well, how the lower trail is summer, but the upper is winter, and the top summer again! Very unique.

Nice pics..... Im in one of them. Awesome weather.
