Mount Whitney Trail

Scenic hiking trail on Mt. Whitney.

Reviewed By Susie1028 - San Diego, United States

Summiting Mt Whitney is on every hiker’s bucket list. At 14,505 feet, it’s the highest point in the lower 48. The hike to get there on the main Whitney Trail is 22 miles with 6,000 feet of elevation gain. You can day hike it or backpack it, but you will need a permit (lottery May 1-November 1, self issued otherwise). It is a clear and established trail, though additional skills and equipment are necessary for safe travel when snow and ice are present. The trail is usually relatively snow-free from late June to mid-October. You can hike as far as Lone Pine Lake (about 2.7 miles each way) without a permit.

San Jacinto Mountain

Reviewed By 811raulg - Doral, United States

Returning to Palm Springs, after more than 20 years, was a unforgettable and splendid experience! The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, the world’s largest rotating tram car, travels over two-and-one-half miles along the breathtaking cliffs of Chino Canyon. It is a ten-minute journey, tram cars rotate slowly, allowing spectacular vistas of the valley below. At the Mountain Station, you will find two very good restaurants, observation decks, natural history museum, gift shop and awesome trails! (over 50 miles of them!) .

Six of us took this wonderful tour, led by Mike, a volunteer from the Palm Springs Historical Society. Mike was knowledgable, and honest when he wasn't. He had a great voice, which was important since most of us were hearing him on "devices". The people with good hearing listened on the devices provided by Bike PS. I asked Mike to wear my transmitter, which brought his voice into my hearing aid and cochlear implant. The only unfortunate situation was one of our group whose behind the ear hearing aids were not compatible with the "silhouette" style earpieces provided. He just stayed close to Mike and got by reasonably well. A suggestion to Bike PS: offer different types of ear pieces including earbuds. This was a fabulous event!
