I have been looking for a video like this for years, thank you.

10 out of 10 video. Fantastic information. Thank you.

By in August of 2002 I crew for Jack McBroom when he set the record for climbing all 15 of California's 14er's, 4 days, 11 hours, 19 minutes. Jack felt the most difficult was the Middle Palisade . He climbed the back side not the glacier side. I guess that would be the North/West side.

Wondering how to get information about traversing some of the ridges between the 14ers and 13ers. Thought I'd start out in the drainage north of Whitney, and weave north, northwest, northeast... towards Forester pass. Much harder with an overnight backpack on, I'm sure, but I love wandering on ridges, and getting a bird's-eye view of alpine lakes.

Starlight and Polemonium are not normally given status as independent 14ers, and T-bolt sometimes is not. Also of note is that Mt. Whitney is the highest peak in the CONTIGUOUS--not the continental--US. (The highest peak in the continental US is McKinley, as Alaska IS part of the continent of North America.) Next, it is worth mentioning that Mt. Langley is the southernmost 14er not just in California but in all the US (but NOT in North America, as there are several mountains above 14K in Mexico). Lastly, Split Mountain is unique in that it is the only 14er whose west side lies within the watershed of the SOUTH fork of the Kings River.

Thank you so much. I Hiked up Whitney several times in my youth, I'm more of an armchair wannabe these days, but might consider Whitney Mountaineer Route with a group, I would probably be weak link in the chain, 💀

Did you do it?

What's the best way to connect the summit of Whitney and Russell?
