UPDATE: Just posted over 100 photos of the hike.
I was for a few seconds the highest man in America when I stood atop Mt. Whitney.
Mount Whitney – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mt Whitney is the highest point in the contiguous United States at elevation 14,505ft (4,421m). It’s just 76mi (123km) west of the lowest point in North America, in Death Valley (282ft (86m) below sea level), and rises over 2mi above the valley floor.
