The Sierra Mountain range features 13 of California’s +14k ft mountains, including Mt Whitney, and receives over 300 days of sun a year with temperatures ranging from 10F to 80F and wind-speeds often over 100mph. This unique combination of sunshine, elevation, extremes in temperature, and wind make it a highly challenging environment for our skin.
