Here is an article about one of my past trips to the area: Alabama Hills Trip
We will be arriving Friday afternoon/evening. It is probably advisable to find a spot "nestled" into the rocks, and I have included approximate GPS coordinates in the invite, but that is just to get a rough idea. We should plan on community camp fires in the evening., and during the day, people can break off and do their own thing. Some things to do:
- Technical off road trail
- Drive up to the base of Mt. Whitney
- Cerro Gorrdo Mining Town
- Desert
- The Arch
- Start Point: OLD Start Point
