You know, there ARE other peaks in the area...
So a certain antler-wearing acquaintance keeps reminding me . . .
Yeah, she and I had the same conversation ... probably on the same day she had it with you, I'd bet.

Actually David, I heard it the first time I hiked with her last year - but certainly every other time since, without fail. And her point is well-taken. The views are more spectacular from places like Mt. Dana and Kearsarge Pass, and the "wilderness experience" on Whitney leaves something to be desired in the summer. She is, however, Whitney - "the blonde" (everyone wants to do her). And there's no match for the Portal experience anywhere along the Eastern Sierra (though the Whoa Nellie Deli has been a mandatory stop for me the past several years).
