Premier Buttress, 5.8 A1 III



The Premier Buttress soars above the Whitney Portal. It is a 5 pitch 5.8 route wit a small section of 5.10c, that can be easily aided.


 

The rock is good, and you can get great views of Lone Pine Peak.

 

By the top, we were getting some weather, but not too bad.

 

This is a great climb if you are in the area and the weather looks fleaky to do some bigger climbs higher up.
