Feeling the alpine on the West face of Mt. Williamson

Mt. Williamson (14,375 ft.) &
Mt. Tyndall (14,018 ft.)
Mt. Williamson and Mt. Tyndall are two of the more remote 14,000 foot peaks in the High Sierra.  Due to the fact that both mountains are in the Bighorn Sheep Zoological Preserve they are only open to climbing from December 15th to July 15th.  Remotness, limited access, and the amount of overall effort to obtain these peaks make this trip a true wilderness alpine challenge. Since they share the same approach from the East via the Shepherd's Pass trail, we highly recommend climbing both peaks on the same trip. Our 5-day trip is tough, requiring good all around skills mountaineering skills (rock, ice, & snow) and excellent physical condition. For many the highlight of the High Sierra 14'ers quest.
