[CMCEmail] Best southern Sierra peak route?

[CMCEmail@Californiamountaineer.com]

Sam,
 
East Ridge of Mt. Russell.:  Whitney Portal, North Fork of Lone Pine  
Creek, Russell-Carillon Pass, East Ridge and return by the same route.   Third 
class, a little exposed, but not steep, great views, relatively short  
approach.

Hi fellow CMC member-
 
I will be driving to the  Sierras from SoCal on a Saturday in October, 
sleeping near the trailhead,  climbing up and down something on Sunday, and 
driving back to SoCal that  night. I might be solo, so I don't want the 
difficulty to exceed 3rd class.  What would you recommend (other than Whitney)?
 
Thanks,
 
Sam Page
