| Nice little diversion from the Whitney Trail (with, IMHO, a nicer 360 view than the Whitney summit) Pics are here. | |

| Michael Graupe | 2007 Sierra Challenge Date Climbed: Aug 12, 2007 | |
| Last day of the 2007 Sierra Challenge. The main objective of the day was to climb Mt. Newcomb. Starting at Whitney Portal I decided to climb McAdie on the way from Arc Pass. Then descended the class 2 chute to Crabtree Pass, climbed Mt. Newcomb via the class 3 east face. From there I returned to Crabtree Pass and gained the Sierra Crest climbing Discovery Pinnacle from the south. I intercepted the trail and hiked up Mt. Whitney. On the way back I also climbed Keeler Needle, Crooks Peak, Third Needle, Aguille Extra, Aguille du Paquoir and Mt. Muir. A long day in a very beautiful area. 14.5h car to car. | |

| Steve Larson | East Buttress Date Climbed: Aug 4, 2007 | |
| Climbed the somewhat long and definitely interesting East Buttress with Brian Decker. After topping out just below the "summit" we traversed over to the main trail, went up Whitney, and then down the Mountaineer's Route. Interesting crowd that you find on Whitney in the summer high season. Some are well-prepared. Others, well, let's just say that they are candidates for a Darwin Award. | |
