Mt Whitney 2008

 

Above, view of Mt. Whitney from the Ranger Station on HWY 395, Lone Pine, where you get your permits

 

On the road to the Mt Whitney Trailhead campground from Lone Pine

 

The next morning, a leisurely departure. Erin, a member of a hiking group, was going to a different area and campsite

 

 

The only waterfall on the way - about half a meter high

 

 

In the distance and below the road that comes up from Lone Pine and leads to the Mt Whitney Trailhead campground
Some logs to balance on or get your hiking boots and socks wet

 

 

 

At the tree-line. Beyond that (behind me in this view), only rocks and on occasion, small plants.
