Mt. Whitney Portal Store & Hostel Forums General Mt. Whitney Portal Store Message Board How much water in Lone Pine creek?

Hi

As mentioned previously we are going to ascend MR on July 5. How much water should we expect in Lone Pine creek? I am wondering whether we should bring watershoes for crossings. Is the waterlevel so low that we can just walk on the rocks?

Another question is it worthwhile to bring a headnet or is bug dope enough?

Thanks

Morten

There are boulders that you can use at all of the stream crossings on the MR.

I'm a "mosquito magnet," and repellant has always been fine for me.
