Hike smartI stood right there where you took this shot. It was rain, hail, wind and dark, heavy clouds at about 9:30 AM. Exactly when I was looking up the chimney to see if I should go up or not, a lightning hit the summit. It was so much tension in the air, so much pressure, I was very concerned. Once the lightning hit, a tremendous amount of rain and hail started coming down. I decided that next year would be a smarter time to try summit Whitney via mountaineer route. Congrats on your ascent.
