Mt. Whitney---Sept. 5, 04

I hiked up Mt. Whitney at the end of a John Muir Trail thru-hike last august/september. It was my first highpoint. At the time, highpointing was not a familiar concept but since then I now hope to highpoint 48 or 50 state highpoints. What a great HP to begin this new goal. I just recently completed the southern eight state HPs. Hopefully Rainier and others this summer. Here is a brief photo article of my JMT hike with Mt. Whitney pics at the end. Enjoy, I sure did.
