Training hike #2 for Mt. Whitney in July with my son. Camped overnight in the Forest Lakes area, then drove down to Christopher Creek to the See Canyon trailhead. We hiked See Canyon last year and enjoyed it, but I enjoyed the Highline/Drew combination better. Views were outstanding. I particularly enjoyed a vista about 1/2 mile from the top, where the valley below the rim opens up, with three tall, dead pines, framing the scene. The trail description talks about potential confusion at the junction of the Highline and Drew trails. It's plain as day now. We couldn't see any other trails intersecting at this junction. In any event, I don't think there is any cause for navigational concern.

Only saw one other set of hikers on the trail past the Highline/See Canyon junction.
