Cheerleader Fun Fact

Back in the 1990s Washington Wizard Girl Director Jessica Pikulski (seen here at Fedex Feld in 2004) climbed California’s Mount Whitney. At 14,505 ft. Mt. Whitney is the highest point in the lower 48 states. Jessica and her group climbed and descended in just 24 hour (the thrill seekers way). The previous day they had visited Death Valley (the lowest point in North America at 282 ft. below sea level). Jessica says that drastic change in elevation did NOT help her altitude sickness. Exhaustion kicked in on the way down the mountain, and she had to be practically rolled off the mountain by her dad.
