Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Current conditions for the Mt. Whitney Mountaineers Route

I am planning on the Mountaineers Route July 29th or 30th. Can I do it WITHOUT crampons and/or microspikes?

I plan to camp at Horseshoe Meadows on July 28th for acclimatization and then camp and UBSL or Iceberg Lake for 1-2 nights for more acclimatization?
Any suggestions?
