At 14,505 feet (4421 meters) in height, Mt. Whitney is the tallest peak in the continental United States. It also happens to be a popular trek for outdoor adventurers. In this video, we join a couple of hikers as they travel to California to take on this iconic climb, finding all-manner of challenges and obstacles while en route.
For those unfamiliar with Whitney, this will serve as a fun introduction. But for those of you who have been there and done that, it will likely bring back a few memories, both good and bad. Such is the joy of hiking a mountain.
