A view of Lone Pine Peak (right) from the back of my truck Friday morning. I spent the night at Tuttle Creek Campground. After getting cleaned up, drove into Lone Pine to meet the rest of the group for breakfast.
Driving up the Whitney Portal Road on my way to the Meysan Lake Trailhead, the start of our hike. Great view of Mount Whitney from the road.
The group at the trailhead getting their stuff together for the hike.
Rob, Jay, Kathy, Sooz, John and Joe(me). We are ready to start the hike to Grass Lake where we will set up camp for the weekend.
Looking down at the Alabama Hiills from a short way into the hike.
Kathy on the trail. The Meysan Lake Trail is really steep compared to most of the trails in the Sierra.
Rob with the northwest face of Lone Pine Peak.
This is at around 10,000 feet, a lot of nice loooking trees at this level.
Grass Lake at 10,800 feet, this area will be our camp for the next two days.
