Lyell Canyon / Donahue Pass

Description 

High altitude climbing. And the highest mountain peak in all the park. For the most part it isn't that hard of climbing as most is class 3-4 however there is a little class 5 stuff no harder than 5.8+.

The hike over the glacier will require crampons and an axe is advisable, since injury here is not a pretty as to its remote location.

The views are incredible and make this a favorite area of mine.

Getting There 

Take Lyell Canyon for about 14 miles to Donahue Pass and turn right at Mt Rogers and Electra peaks. Hike up Lyell Glacier and choose your poison.
