Beautiful video! I’m thrilled to see this. It was 1970, I believe, that I hiked to the top with our church youth group. We did the 99 switchbacks by moonlight and arrived at the Windows at sunrise. When I saw the building it actually took me a second because I remember sitting with my back against the wall soaking up the warm morning sun and reveling in our accomplishment. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this gorgeous video. We had made two previous attempts to get to the top but the weather turned us around. Of course back then permits weren’t required. Thanks for the memories! ♥️

[@lopezexplora]

My pleasure! I’m so glad it got you great memories I know that feeling it hasn’t been that long for me but also it is my most favorite hike ever!! When I was on the switchbacks it was completely dark and when I took breaks I turned off my headlamp and enjoyed one of tho most spectacular starry nights ever!! Thank you for watching 🙏

[@fh5926]

You must be in incredible shape.

[@lopezexplora]

You would think, but not really . It’s about stamina and determination plus really enjoying what you do. 🥾🥾

[@garywilliamson2511]

Great video!! I was on the way down and met you near Lone Pine Lake, it was great to relive my Whitney climb through your video.

[@lopezexplora]

Hey ! Right, how you doing? Thank you for the advice but no energy left to do that extra hike, Muir Peak I think ? But it’s always nice to find nice people like you on my path, happy trails Gary 🥾🥾

[@garywilliamson2511]

Whitney is absolutely the primary focus and objective!! So happy that you made the summit and also made this excellent video. And you are right, nice people like you make the hike all the better.

[@ervinslens]

Love this bud, gorgeous scenery. Very different landscape than I am used to I seeing.

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you, I’m glad you liked it 🥾🥾

[@michaelbrito2379]

Thank you so much for this. Will be attempting to summit for the first time in August. You really capture the beauty of the mountain and I couldn't be more excited to try it myself!

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you for watching, hope you have a great time and summit 🥾🥾

[@michaelq28]

I'm going in August too, Michael! August 9-10. Are you doing the day hike or camping overnight?

[@Tawnmaybe]

Great video! It was perfect the way you put it together. I really loved how it ended with the map of your path up and down the mountain with pictures. Fantastic!

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you so much 🥾🥾

[@larkangel6593]

Was anyone doing the Chute or was the snow level too low? Crazy to see the cables clear mid May. I was doing whitney every year for awhile. Crazy beautiful how well you captured exactly what it looks like like

[@lopezexplora]

Most of us doing the 99 switchbacks , the chute I heard was getting slushy ( dangerous) Thank you watching, subscribe if you haven’t already 🥾🥾

[@ronplaisted3008]

Absolutely amazing video. Thank you, thoroughly enjoyed.

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you 🙏

[@polysurfer]

Great video! I saw you had crampons for part of the 99 switchbacks. Were those a must have or could you have summited without them? Thanks.

[@lopezexplora]

At that time, it was best to have them, I’m sure by now it’s all melted but don’t take my word for it. It’s best to be prepared, thank you for watching, consider subscribing if you haven’t already 🥾🥾

[@elisalopez3738]

It’s amazing and incredible video, I loved that you made it again, congrats!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you my love ❤️

[@joebacarella1304]

Just an awesome video!!!! I've been to the top of Whitney twice and the hike is absolutely breathtaking. I've watched many videos but this one is one of the best! Makes me want to head back for a third summit. Thank you for the video, it was very cool!!!

Yo I just realized we used the same song 🎧

[@lopezexplora]

LOL

[@hikesome]

Such beautiful scenery out there on Mt. Whitney. Looks like a great trail to hike and the camp looks so cozy as well ;) Was so nice and relaxing to follow you on this adventure and I will definitely follow you here on YT as well ;) Have a wonderful day and happy trails, Mario

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you so much 🥾🥾

[@robertnewman5884]

Thank you for this amazing video. I plan to do a partial one day summit attempt 6/1/22. I hope to get to trail camp and then return. Later this year or next I hope to snag a 2 day permit do I can make it to the top. Great job on the video and congratulations!

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you so much, I truly hope that you summit it. It’s an amazing and epic experience 🥾🥾

[@PUNCHD0NKEY]

Hello! Awesome video. I hope I didn't miss this somewhere, but what time of year did you do this hike? Thanks!

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you for watching, this was May , 2022 🥾🥾

[@michaelq28]

Well done!! I'm taking the same adventure with my son August 9-10 2022. We're going to start at Whitney Portal and hike up and camp at Trail Camp. Early the next morning we'll hit the Summit! From there we will hike all the way back to Whitney Portal. I wanted to ask how much water did you bring/drink from Trail Camp to the Summit and did you feel any effects of AMS?

[@lopezexplora]

You have a great plan, and having your kid with you will make it priceless. I’m happy for you, when I went there was plenty of water all along the trail so didn’t have to carry a lot because I kept refilling ( filter) my bottle until trail camp which is probably your last chance to get water before the switchbacks. From there I carry 3.5 litters. I never have issues with AMS , I’m guessing is because I’m slow and keep drinking water and having snacks all the time. Best of luck for you 🥾🥾

[@2ddw]

What did you do for training for this hike?

[@lopezexplora]

Baldy, Baden Powell the San Gabriel’s Thank you for watching 🥾🥾

[@lopezexplora]

They are on my channel

[@manisun2007]

Super and Congratulations. I plan to summit all in one day end of June. I only got a day permit. How did you overcome altitude sickness? I might definitely have that issue. How was hiking the switchbacks? did you need ice axe?

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you, no ice axe needed only micro spikes on the switchbacks, for AMS I take Dramamine but I had no issues with it, of course we are all different hope you summit it and have a great time! 🥾🥾

[@gregoryfarris4801]

Suggest going up to Cottonwood Pass/ Horseshoe Meadow Campground and acclimate at least 2 days, its 10,000 feet. Think when you go, ice will be gone.

[@Andy-Mesa]

43lb! My heaviest overnight pack was half that and I was complaining the whole way.

[@lopezexplora]

Yeah that was crazy, I get cold easily so I got an extra sleeping bag and clothes

[@slag_3c]

What sleeping bag temp do you recommend for trail camp at end of July?

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you for watching, this place could turn to freezing temperatures overnight even during summer so be prepared, I got a 32 degree one because I get cold very easily. Best regards

[@jazmineheartz899]

Beautiful video. Congrats 🎉 In that trail condition at switchbacks- How long did it take you to summit from Trail Camp?

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you, took me about 6 hours. I’m always in slow mode-no rush that way I enjoy it much more and also shooting the video, thank you for watching consider subscribing if you haven’t already 🥾🥾

[@jazmineheartz899]

I’ve already subscribed. I’m Slow too. Love to enjoy my hikes/nature. Thanks 😊

[@jmccoy969]

Great video! I have hiked Mt Whitney with family and friends twice (2005 & 2010). Both hikes were amazing, exhilarating, exhausting and epic! Ours were “the big one” hikes-up and down the mountain in one day. 18 hours on the trail from start to finish 😀🥵😩😁🥹💪🏻 Mt. Whitney an adventure! So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for sharing your video. Also, to have a TRULY SAFE hike up Mt. Whitney, never hike it solo!😊

[@lopezexplora]

Thank you 🙏

[@mirandoyexplorando1489]

Do I need waterproof boots for this hike? I am going in July.

[@lopezexplora]

Not really, the creek crossings are easy, but is not a bad idea though, ( for July) Thank you for watching

[@aliensoup2420]

If you don't want to get your shoes wet, bring a light-weight pair of sandals. Then you can comfortably walk through the creek bed, and keep your hiking shoes dry.

[@FernandoTrujillo-u1z]

hola lopez explora me llamo fernando he estado solamente dos veces y si es algo super hermoso desafortunadamente ya no he podido ganar la loteria para el over night permit pero si lo ganara por seguro que regresaria felicidadez
