You forgot Trail Crest. It is a pass.
Sorry…you have to go over Trail Crest to get out to Whitney Portal, but it is not on the JMT. The southern terminus is the top of Mount Whitney. Thanks for the comment.
Ray – Thank you for writing an extremely informative and interesting article. I do however believe that you are wrong in claiming that Trail Crest is not on the JMT.
The JMT as everyone knows either terminates or originates on the summit of Mount Whitney depending on one’s direction of travel. Either way, one must pass through Trail Crest. Therefore Trail Crest IS on the JMT.
Thanks, Robert. I’m unpersuaded — using that reasoning Whitney Portal is on the JMT, which I think we can agree is not true. Also, one can take the Mountaineer’s Route to the summit (or from the summit) and join the JMT. Also, because of the dearth of permits, they are quite a few people who enter the wilderness to the south, first hike north and then EAST to the summit of Whitney, and then begin their JMT hike at that point. They never cross Trail Crest. What I will grant is that nearly 100% of the hikers who complete the JMT cross Trail Crest (and Whitney Portal as well), either after they have completed the JMT or before they begin it. Thanks, again.
