Weird. I KNOW i posted a reply to this yesterday, but it isn't here today. Oh well.

 

We each brought a homemade dinner for three, that we cooked at night. We also brought mixed nuts, peanut butter, cheese, and summer sausage. Thanks for the kind words. My question is, should it take 4 days for the trip, or are we just slackers?

"My question is, should it take 4 days for the trip, or are we just slackers? "

The first time I climbed whitney I was acclimated to sea level and it took all day to get to a point halfway between upper boy scout and iceberg lakes and I was worked. The second time I was acclimated from living at 7000 feet for a few months and made it all the way to iceberg in an easy afternoon. The altitude is the real killer.
