Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Tulainyo Lake to Arctic Lake

I personally would not like to climb up Russell - Carillion Pass / Col with a full pack and then to the summit of Russell. It can be done sure but I hope you have experience on all levels of class 3 with a pack on.

That's exactly the sort of crazy thing I normally plan and do but in this case I would not do it.

If it helps you at all I have a write up on Russell / Carillon Pass here
