In preperation for our Mt. Whitney hike towards the end of August, Ryan and I drove to the highest peak close to San Diego, Mt. San Jacinto. San Jac overlooks Palm Springs to the east and all of inland east LA to the west. Ryan and I took off pretty early to get on the mountain at a good time. The hike went by pretty darn fast on the way up. We chatted about life, history, politics and anything. The top was awesome and we chatted it up with a dad and his son. The way back down started to drag a little and the last 4 miles were very tiring (as to be expected). Ryan and I drove as fast as we could to Temecula so we wouldn't crash from being tired and so we could eat some In-n-out. By finishing the 15 mile hike in less than 8 hours, I knew I would be able to make it up Whitney!
