Thank you for all of the suggestions. After consulting the husband who is along for the ride, we compromised and settled on Mammoth Village for Wed through Fri nights. We will head down to pick up our permits on Saturday morning and figure out where to stay pre hike. Maybe the walk in sites at the portal or the hostel. Hoping to stay at the hostel Sunday night after the hike.
I made it to the adventure 16 whitney clinic in west LA last night and had the pleasure of hearing Kurt Wedberg speak. I didn't think I could be more excited about Whitney but I am!
