High Sierra ramblings.



There are few, if any, guides with a deeper and broader resume in the High Sierra:

33 of Peter Croft's original 40 classics
57 of Moynier and Fiddler's 101 classics
32 of 35 routes in the Supertopo book.
56 of the 100 highest peaks in California
13 of the 15 "fourteeners"
First winter ascent of the Complete Palisade Traverse.
First integral completion of the entire "Red Line" skier's traverse
Hundreds of ski descents and traverses all up and down the range.
38 of the 60 "Classic Peak Descents" in the Moynier ski book.
A couple hands full of first ascents and first ski descents.
76 of the Sierra Peak Section peaks list. Including: 12 of the SPS Mountaineers Peaks and 11 of the SPS Emblem peaks.

And numerous treks and traverses that may or may not have included prominent summits or classic routes. I've cooked up this map to show the areas I've traveled in the High Sierra. Clearly it is rough, and I keep remembering more places to note. But it's worth checking out if you're curious about the wilderness ramblings of this Sierra fiend.
