Join us for a fun, informative, and inspirational presentation covering all you need to know to complete a multi-day trans-Sierra backpacking trek to Mt. Whitney, the highest point in the lower 48 states. Chris Casado, co-founder of Trans-Sierra Xtreme Challenge, has spent countless summers camping in secluded lake basins, crossing high alpine passes, following rushing rivers, and climbing majestic peaks. Learn the nuts and bolts of planning a multi-day backcountry trek, including gear, permits, weather, safety, Leave No Trace, and more.
