two years ago a buddy and i did a 50 hour fast pack trip on the high sierra trail. that was a blast.
we decided to add some biking in this year so earlier this month we went out to lone pine for a weekend, did horseshoe meadow and whitney portal on our bikes the first day and then did the whitney day hike the next day. pretty fun little multi sport weekend. it was really hot the weekend we were there and cycling up the exposed climb of whitney portal in the middle of the day probably wasnt the best idea. we live close to the sierras on the other side so we do big mountains all the time, but man horseshoe meadow was just so different in so many ways. if anyone has the chance to do that i highly suggest it.
