I don't remember any specifics, because I didn't encounter any tricky route-finding--just a straightforward talus hike. Any large boulders near the summit were easily negotiated--if you encountered problems, it should only take a little searching to find an easy route. If that ridge is class 3, so is every other class 2 Sierra peak I've ever walked up...

The West Ridge is class 2. That might be the easiest route on the mountain.

Heading up the south slopes/ridge/talus from Italy Pass is pretty darned easy, too. There was nothing resembling class 3 when I climbed it a couple of weeks ago.

I did head up the south ridge on my climb, but got into some pretty tough boulders requiring hands and feet, thus the class 3 comment I made. Perhaps there is an easier class 2 route.. .and I just missed it. Add any route specifics you took and I'll review. Thanks for the input.

Hi David,



Is there a route you can add for the West Ridge? I clearly did not take the easiest route up the mountain. Thanks for the input.

I just went up from Italy Pass August 6 and got into Class 3 stuff just as I was approaching the summit, maybe 100 away. Being dehydrated, tired and by myself I turned back. I wish I knew there was Class 2 stuff there as I would have looked for it. The stuff I found were large boulders with the 10 foot deep crevasses.
