Mt. Whitney Portal Store & Hostel Forums General Mt. Whitney Portal Store Message Board Over the Hill Bill is going to try again on the 30

Hi All,
Well, the old fat guy is going to try and make it again on the 30th.

We hope to be at the trail head and start, sometime around 2:00AM. If anyone is going to be going up that day, please say “Hi” as you pass.

Been looking at the conditions of the trail and hope we won’t need crampons and such.

See ya on the trail.
All the best,
Over the Hill Bill

Go get 'em, Bill! Have fun!

Thanks Moosie,

hope you are having fun.

It looks like I’ll become Bionic Bill when I get back to San Diego, ‘case they are going to replace the right knee.

See you on Iron Mountain sometime.
All the best,
Bill

Hey Bill... didn't we meet on the Iron Mountian group hike last year?

Good luck on Whitney!!!

I will be on the Main Trail on the 30th for my 17th Annual. I will be starting 4:00-4:30, but maybe I will catch up to you by the summit, and if so I will say "Hi". Good luck and do come back next year again and see how well your new equipment works...
