		I have used Whitney's books on numerous hikes and have found discrepancies on water availability and I disagree avidly on his opinion of "a great hike".
		He is accurate on difficulty ratings and distances, but check with the visitor's center to verify water sources and directions for the trail or route and MOST IMPORTANTLY, get recommendations from people who have recently hiked your choice of trails.

		We left Whitney Portal at 05:15 and were back there at 20:10, some 15 hours later. The descent took us almost as long as the ascent, though younger people with stronger knees could probably get down a lot more quickly.
		Doing it over three days would give you a lot more time, but also a lot more to carry if you are camping out (there are no refuges on the route). We felt that a one-day ascent would be a better option for us, though we had a permit for two days, just in case.
		There are lots of motels: we stayed, appropriately enough, at the Mount Whitney Motel on the main drag (actually, almost everything in Lone Pine is on the main drag).
