Mt Whitney Zone Forums Trip Reports Trip Report - 8/18/17 - First Time Climber

Rick, Great report! Thanks for taking time to put together a detailed report. I do have few questions and any input is really appreciated.

Did you take Diamox? This is my first time going to 12k+ elevation. I am still debating whether to take Diamox or not as I am worried about the side effects.
I am debating to rent a Satellite phone, is there any need on the trial? How is the cell coverage?

Thanks
