| Went to Whitney Res yesterday and took the whole family, my kids are 8yr old girl, 6yr old boy, and 2 yr old boy. I had called Will the saturday before to get a better idea as to where to go since I have never been there before, thanks Will!!! We left SL valley about 11am got to the campsite at about 1pm or so, it was very dusty driving. The forst service is fixing the road near Whitney res so the dump trucks, grader, and roller provided quite the obstacle on the small road, but it was smooth and a car could easily make it there with no problems. Anyways got camp set up, tent set and everything unpacked. Found a nice spot a little bit off the main road in some trees. Went fishin' caught a stocked 14" bow which freaked out my 2 yr old, but put the little guy back. The kiddos patience was no longer in existance so we went back to camp to hang out the rest of the trip. It was a fun adventure. The next day we ate yummy camp food, bacon, eggs, and pancakes. When we left camp I saw a DWR stock truck driving on the other side of the res so we hurried up to see them unload 17k rainbows, the kids loved seeing those fish and we got to help the fish out of the shallow areas. My 5 yr old son was standing on a rock and slipped and fell in, I turned around and fell on my ass as well, we had a great laugh. Here are a few pics of the fun we had! Ruth Lake, the last outhouse to do business... so we thought, there are some at the res Camp The res reeling in the bow behind our camp Nature's lightning rod Mirror Lake | |

| You are very welcome my friend.
Looks like you had a heck of a spot, and it looks like there weren't many people there. Glad you had a good time. Man, I really want to get up there now! | |
