Hasn't voted | 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. | |

Hasn't voted | 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. | |

Hasn't voted | 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. | |

Hasn't voted | 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... | |

Voted 10/10 | The West Ridge is class 2. That might be the easiest route on the mountain. | |
