In my view, this is the very best Whitney video on YouTube. I reached the summit of Mt. Whitney and this video gives a very realistic view of the hike and the highlights of the trail. Well done!!!

@ajussiwannabe When are you going? The best time to go – meanign greatest percentage of chance for a successful summit with good climate is the 2nd to 3rd week of Sept. The weather is usually beautiful.

Well done, I like traveling videos

This has to be one of the best Mt. Whitney videos so far. I wish you captured this video in late spring or winter – the mountain looks stunning.
