Mt. Whitney Portal Store & Hostel Forums General Mt. Whitney Portal Store Message Board Guess who, what, when, where and why?

Cheez, grahamcracker... i just snarfed vino all over my monitor...

And as for the "What?" and the "Why?", Mike is wrong. The "What" is Betsy's First Muir Summit. The "Why" is because...

that's what Betsy wanted to do!!!!!

The Moose has never been a what, only a who, thanks very much.

Answer to the Bonus Questioin:
No, the main goal of the day was Muir. Anything else would have been a bonus, but based on the weather that was moving in as we came off Muir and how my legs felt (just a little tired since they had not hiked in the mountains for several months), I was quite content with the day. Actually, make that hugely happy!!!
Rick, you take great pictures. I look forward to hearing about your trip to 18,000 feet and to seeing those pixs.
Happy Hiking, Betsy
