Early rising? Well some of rose early.
First up, before hiking, Joey had to attempt the Whitney Portal Store Pancake.
Then we were on our way.
This year was the first year in 8 years that we decided to camp at trail camp. That meant carrying a heavy pack vs. doing as a day trip.
Well I was in for a rude awakening, I am not in that kind of shape to lug 40 lbs of gear (more on weight later) 11 miles and 6,000 feet of elevation gain.
So after a brief discussion, Joey and I decided to make it a day hike to Lone Pine Lake, eat lunch and return.
We arrived at Lone Pine Lake and Joey immediately began to explore while I made lunch. We were then raided by a chipmunk. They are fearless.
Once we had lunch, we rested for a bit (well I rested, Joey continued to climb around). We packed up and headed back.
