[pct-l] Mt. Whitney



Once you cross Forrester Pass you are required to use the bear boxs until
Woods Creek. I would pick up a bera canister at VVR.

Hey there.  Sorry about the blank message i might have
just sent.  I wanted to to ask if anybody is planning
on trekking up Mount Whitney as I am?  If so then I
was wondering how much time (1 day? or more?) you are
planning on devoting to this.  Also, if climbing
Whitney, is it better to resupply in Lone Pine on the
way down, skip Independence, and push towards
Vermillion for the next package?  I plan on departing
Kennedy Meadows on June 14 or 15th and heading to
Whitney then and, due to the informal gathering at the
meadows, hope there are people to group up with before
ascending Whitney.  Let me know.
                       Jason/"Porto"

ps-If anybody knows the sections where bear canisters
are required it might be helpdul to send it to this
list as I am still hazy about where they are required.
