Nice. Glad you had a good time. There are so many beautiful places in the Sierra. I did the JMT in 2015 then went back last year for a loop of my own design that started on the High Sierra Trail. I can't get enough of the Sierra. Planning on a 280 mile hike for 2017 that will hit most of the places I walked right by when doing the JMT in 2015. Keep it up and teach - actually let - your kids love nature and hiking.

Thanks Chris, I really enjoyed your video! Your hike seemed very similar to mine in 2014. About the same time of year and very similar itinerary. I didn't get to summit Mt Whitney though. I had a storm on the last night too, but it was a big long thunderstorm that lasted well into the next day. The hike up to, and over Trail Crest was treacherous enough, so I decided to play it safe and continue down to the Portal instead of risking my life heading to the summit. A very difficult decision, but "gethomeitis" got the better of me and I decided not to wait it out and take an extra day to summit. Glad you made it! Cheers!

Yeah I was impressed that my little sony rx100 picked up the milkyway so well. I took a TON of night sky time lapses. Most didn't turn out. I wish I could remember the settings for the ones that did!

The top of Lyell may be visible second from the right at 3:52, though -- not 100% sure. Also, excellent video. Even if I stepped up my game when it comes to documenting outdoor pursuits, I think this would still be an order of magnitude better.

Jimmy Zhang Just saw the last part of your message. I thinks it's ok for UL loads for trips with a small/medium chance of rain. For very wet trips I might opt for the zPacks challenger instead. Light, but seems a little tougher.
