Inyo National Forest - Lone Pine Lake
This is the last of my "Out West" updates. After leaving Yosemite, Casey and I headed to Inyo National Forest where we met up with my sister and her husband. The two of them were planning to hike Mt. Whitney and wanted to acclimate to the altitude before attempting the 22 mile trek. Casey and I joined them on one of their shorter day hikes up to Lone Pine Lake. Situated on the Mt. Whitney trail, the lake was absolutely breathtaking. A few bold souls were actually swimming in the lake, but at roughly 10,000 feet in elevation, it was as much as I could do to dip my hand.
