Thanks for the write-up and especially the photos. Takes me back to
my Sierra hiking days mid-1970's! 1977 I logged nearly 500 miles in
the mountains (every weekend). I think there were less crowds back
then. Solo hiking was quiet-serene. I also backpacked with the JPL
Hiking Club back then. We sumitted Mt. Whitney 14,000+ but that is a
"walk up" hike. But you really feel the altitude above 13,500 where
we dropped our packs. I hiked with 60-lbs back then.
Only took a 2m-HT in those days. Made SF area from Lassen crater
rim. Wish I could still do the hiking but only drive the high roads, now.
Where we live in AK the terrain-climate is similar to 9,000 feet in
the Sierra but we are only 138-foot ASL.
