Mt. Sill 14,162 ft. via the Swiss Arete III 5.7.
According to many Sierra Climbers, this peak has the best view from any summit in the Sierra Nevada. The climbing on the Swiss Arete is more than outstanding. The well-featured rock makes the climbing consistent and interesting.
This three day trip is suited to the climber with basic climbing skills and excellent physical conditioning.
Day one brings us from the trail head to Sam Mack Meadows and up to our base camp below Glacier Notch. Day two takes us to the summit of Mt. Sill and back to base camp. Day three brings us down to the trail head by early afternoon.
