Mt. Whitney Challenge
The Mt. Whitney Challenge is 5 days hike through the Sequoia
National Park reaching the summit of Mt. Whitney from the west. The
adventure begins just outside Lone Pine, California entering the
park through Cottonwood Pass. This world class hike offers stunning
views of high alpine lakes, lush meadows, and multiple 14,000 foot
peaks. We will make our summit bid on day three from Guitar Lake,
and with a short ascent, be back to base camp with plenty of time
for a well-deserved celebration. This is an unbelievable opportunity
to climb the highest point in the lower 48, at 14,505 ft. The raw
natural beauty of the region showcases the granite batholiths of the
Sierra Nevada area. This trip highlights an American icon and
incredible scenic offerings.
