I keep forgetting that most folks in this forum seem to be interested in Mt. Whitney information exclusively, to the exclusion of the wider world of mountaineering. Okay, okay, no need to remind me that this is meant to be a Whitney forum...
Actually, I think that it is quite evident that almost all of us do a great deal of our adventures in Yosemite, too (many of the posters are West-Siders). In my case, even more of my time is spent north of Yosemite.
Any and all information is appreciated.
