Hi and welcome back to our channel! In today's vlog, we take you on our journey of hiking Mt. Whitney - the tallest peak in the lower 48 states. Due to this year's record snow fall, most of the trail was covered in snow! It was the BIGGEST and MOST EXCITING adventure we've ever been on! I'm so happy to say we were able to summit Mt. Whitney in one day - 18 hours & 25 minutes roundtrip. It was the HARDEST thing we've ever done, but so worth it! Not to mention, this was our FIRST 14er!!! How crazy is that!? We now caught the "14-er bug" and plan to do more in the near future, so stay tuned. 😉
