I was planning on doing the JMT this year, but I can see that it isn't going to happen. Shooting for OV to MtW instead.
Planning on doing something this winter if my schedule lightens up.
I've been taking my son's wrestling team on 5.5mile weekly conditioning hikes up in the Santa Monica mountains behind our house. Plan on continuing that through the end of February.
Hoping to do some winter/early spring hikes on the MMWT. Going to start small. Maybe an overnight to LPL and then work my way up. If I make it up to trail crest by the end of the snow season, I will be happy.
Planning on Tuttle Creek or Meysan Lake during the height of the season.
Not even going to bother trying to get a whitney permit this year. I'll go up, see if I can get a walk-in, if not, I'll explore other trails.
