Ben Enjoying the Scenery of Bighorn Park
“In this photo, Rich is looking up at the peaks surrounding Bighorn Park, which is along the Mt. Whitney Trail between Whitney Portal and Mount Whitney. This 22 mile (11 miles from trailhead to the top) trip can be done in a long day hike, which we did a few years before this, but this time we took it easy and we were on the trail for a total of three days. It was a great trip; we camped at Trail Camp, made it to the top of Mt. Whitney without any problems and enjoyed the beautiful scenery along the way.” - Ben
