Now that's beautiful, I've done a lot of backpacking out of Whitney Portal and Mammoth Lakes when I was a kid and remember all the great fishing in that area well, thanks for posting the pic Dryrod, brings back very fond memories.
Here's a pic looking west from just below Mt Whitney peak, I remember this sign, 13,900 something feet, I think Whitney summit is 14,442 Guitar Lake is in the foreground and the canyons you see are the headwaters of the Kern, there is absolutely nothing for approx 100 miles through this area of the Sierras until almost Fresno !! unreal trout fishing.
