Alex,

If you don't get anyone to answer this request, be sure you study the route well before you head up the mountain. I hope you know there is no trail on much of the route, so you need to know the area, or at least what to expect, so you can navigate through the tricky places.

There are some good links and pictures on this site, if you go to the Reference Forum, first post, "Links to important Whitney information." In that post, you can find this: Mountaineers Route info and links
