The original climbing Mt. Whitney

Recommended by the U.S. Forest Service and in print for over 40 years, Climbing Mt. Whitney is the guide to climbing the highest peak in California. Climbing Mt. Whitney describes how to climb Whitney as a dayhike, backpack, rock climb or as an evening hike by moonlight. Technical climbing routes on Whitney's East Face are described with Norman Clyde's own account of the first ascent up the magnificent East Face. Many books try to copy the 40 year success of Climbing Mt. Whitney, locally produced in Bishop, California. Don't be fooled by the paid reviewers' comments on the back covers of the other publishers books! Climbing Mt. Whitney is the original guide to the best climbing on Whitney!
