skyclimb Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 Climb: Mt. Whitney-East Face Date of Climb: 9/25/2006 Trip Report: What a fun route on really good rock! We left the Car at about 6:30 a.m. after a great breakfast from a good friend, and meandered to the base of the route by about 11:00. We simul-climbed the first 7 or so pitches in 1 pitch, and then got off route...LOL...From here we ended up pitching it out...doing about 5 full rope lengths. Ended up getting back to the car at about 9:00p.m., for a great day of alpine fun....the decent is still good to go, bare rock with snow in couloirs. Gear Notes: Anorexic rack....4 cams, small set of nuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAL Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Congratulations on summiting THE HIGHEST PEAK IN THE CONTINENTAL US! LOL! Hmmm... What happened to McKinley? Is Alaska no longer in North America? Continental vs. Contiguous - what's the difference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
