For any hiker, the summit of Mount Whitney is an awe-inspiring metaphor of achievement. The highest peak in the lower 48 states.
Magnificent views from its summit are unparalleled, displaying the Sierra's tree-less spines and granite vistas, plus the White Mountains, Death Valley NP, Lone Pine, and much of Sequoia and Kings Canyon NPs.
But it's not easy; the 22-mile trek, with an elevation change of over 6,000 feet, is a challenge even for the most experienced. Most complete the route in 12-14 hours, beginning at Whitney Portal before sunrise.
However, there's also the option to split the trip into two days and carry a backpack, camping out at Outpost Camp or Trail Camp.
This shirt design shows the contour lines of Mount Whitney. Contour lines are used on hiking maps to show changes in elevation. For example each contour line passed could indicate 30 feet in elevation gain. The closer the lines are together, the steeper it is.
Here's why it will be your favourite shirt:
100% Environmentally-friendly Cotton: That gives a thicker vintage feel to the shirt. This is a long lasting garment suitable for everyday use
No Side Seams: Knitted in one piece using a tubular knit, it reduces fabric waste and gives the shirt a clean, unbroken flow.
Ribbed Knit Seamless Collar: Ribbed knit makes the collar highly elastic and helps retain its shape.
Shoulder Tape: Twill tape covers the shoulder seams to stabilize the back of the garment and prevent stretching
Fit & Sizing: This shirt runs a little bit bigger than usual and is designed to have a slightly oversized fit.
Heavyweight Shirt: This is a heavyweight shirt ( 6.0 oz/yd² ). This means it's way more durable and gives it a vintage, slightly oversized style.
