| xharv | Ritter-Davis doubleheader from Lake Catherine Date Climbed: Sep 11, 2009 | |
| The second stop in a double header from Lake Catherine: Ritter in the morning, Davis in the afternoon. Not much snow left on the summit plateau. An hour and a half to the top, another hour for the trip back to Catherine. Fine weather. About twenty-five parties signed SPS summit register up to now in 2009. | |

| oliverkalt | NE Ridge & Glacier Date Climbed: Jun 27, 2009 | |
| Hiked the NE Ridge from Island Pass, passed Pt 3505 on the left and crossed to the final gully of the North Glacier (Secor) at ~3500m (11500ft). The entire ridge up to that point is very nice hiking without scree. Beautiful views of Banner/Ritter, Thousand Island Lake, and Davis Lakes along the entire ridge | |

| mrchad9 | From Banner Date Climbed: Jul 3, 2009 | |
| Over from Banner after camping at 1000 Is Lake. Solid snow made the going a bit easier than following the big talus. Stunning views of Ritter and Banner in the afternoon light. Overall a great day. | |

| farrisgl | SE slope from Lake Catherine Date Climbed: Aug 19, 2004 | |
| Provided a very nice view from the summit on what turned into a long day hike through a lot of boulder fields. Perhaps the very best view was of the West side of Banner and Ritter. While the view of the peaks from Thousand Island Lake is one of the most photographed in the Sierras, this view is only seen by mountaineers. Well with summitting this rarely climbed peak. | |

| An easy climb from North Glacier Pass and Lake Catherine. Took me a bit to realize which highpoint was the actual summit, but perfect weather and easy climbing made it easy to get around and check. | |

| Bob Burd | SE Slopes Date Climbed: May 31, 2008 | |
| With Tom Becht, made a dayhike effort from the Rush Creek TH. Lots of unconsolidated snow from a late season snow made this far tougher than it would normally have been. Trip Report | |

| Michael Graupe | West Slopes Date Climbed: Jun 24, 2007 | |
| After climbing Foerster and Electra the previous day and bivying at ~11000ft on the east slope below Electra, crossed the valley to Lake 3108, stashed the overnight gear and ascended the west slope. Found a class 2-3 chute leading to the summit plateau. Great early morning view of Banner and Ritter! Then descended the same way and hiked out to the Isberg Pass TH via Twin Island Lakes and Hemlock Crossing. | |

| derbilly | From North Glacier Pass Date Climbed: Jul 6, 2006 | |
| After establishing camp at Thousand Island Lake, I headed up North Glacier Pass on on to Mt Davis. Fairly interesting peak with great views. I returned to camp to find that a marmot had been eating my trekking poles. | |

| Amazing but very long hike. Great views of Banner and Ritter, want to go back some day and climb them. We ended up hiking 20 miles all the way into Tuolumne Medows the next day after we climbed Mt. Davis. | |

| I had set out from camp at Thousand Island Lake for a climb of Ritter via the class 2 route on the west side. I never found the route as the weather turned to a mini blizzard. Decided to climb Davis as a consolation. Trip Report | |
