| tannerpuma15 | 12 day epic ![]() Date Climbed: Aug 15, 2008 | |
| Began at Happy isles on the 4th and finished at Mt. Whitney on the 15th. 12 days and all in my chacos! everyday but two we did 20+ miles and and we did Mather and Pinchot pass in the same day. It was a wonderful and amazing journey. It was really fast but incredible and worth every second of planning. One resupply at MTR. Wished I had taken more time to fish, but don't regret any of it!!! | ||

| Hiked the JMT southbound in 2003. Solo in 13 days, much of the second half was hobbling on a bad knee, but it was incredible. Some beautiful scenery, some great times, and surprisingly given its like the superhighway of the Sierra, lots of solitude. If interested feel free to see my JMT Trip report with pics and an interactive topo map. | ||

| I started in Tuolumne Meadows and spent 14 days on the JMT in 2006. A very scenic trip. Took a day off at Edison Lake, bar-b-que and beer. | ||

| 13 days with Stephen Quale and Jon McLeod. Jonathan Shapas started with us but had to drop out after a knee injury. Minor setback in the Valley when a bear broke into our car in Happy Isles. 13 days is a tough pace, but it allowed us to go light. Would like to spend more time around the LeConte canyon area -- amazing! Pictures are here. | ||
