Glad to hear you made it down safely. Hiked San Jacinto Peak yesterday and summited around 1130, not two minutes after getting to the top, giant rain drops began falling. Realizing that there was a storm on the way, we booked it down from the top, hail, thunder and lightning and lots of rain made for a wet descent. We are leaving for Whitney Portal on Tuesday for a summit attempt on Friday and praying for good weather, looking at the weather reports it looks like good weather should be coming in on Wednesday.
Thank you for the TR, first time hiking Whitney for our entire group, and very thankful for all of the information everyone has provided! Ill be sure to give my report when I am back!
