As the highest mountain in the lower 48 states, California’s 14,505-foot Mount Whitney is on the “life list” of many hikers. And it''s no wonder: The views from the top of the 21-mile-round-trip Mount Whitney Trail are unbeatable, extending across the jagged granite peaks of the Sierra Nevada to the expansive Owens River Valley and beyond.

You must prepare for the altitude, long distance, elevation gain, mountain weather, and other potential dangers. One Best Hike: Mount Whitney by experienced hiker and author Elizabeth Wenk is a step-by-step guide that tells you how to tackle this trip with confidence.
