Mt. Whitney Portal Store & Hostel Forums General Mt. Whitney Portal Store Message Board Beautiful photos... (07/18/09)

Some times, you just get lucky!



A LOT of people were heading down as I was heading up on Saturday. Too bad, it was a unbelievable day in the mountains.

Incredible day and beautiful shots!

I am heading up the Main Trail on Thurs(7/23) and plan to tag Mt. Muir for the first time... I have read everything I can find. Any last minute tips from one of the Board Brain Trust's? For further reference, I am trying to place your recent photos in to some of the larger frame pictures I have seen.

I have summited Mt. Whitney 2x's-MT and 2x's-MR in the last 3 summers.

Thank you!
Mike

Great photos, thank you for posting Richard.

RPF, I took a sequence of photos of the route I take up Muir, so you should be able to get an idea of what the moves are like to climb it.

Thanks Blooty and L136. It's fun when you go out there when the scenery makes it so easy to get good shots.
