Whitney

Yes folks, we made it up Mt. Whitney in California which is actually the highest mountain in the lower 48. Well, actually the lower 49. The only American mountains higher than Whitney are in Alaska. There are much harder mountains in the US but not higher. The official height is 14,494 ft and we felt the altitude when we got up there. There was also a fair bit of snow still on the mountain on July 6th so while it was not technical, it was a little scary and not a walk in the park. Here are the photos commemorating the trip.
