I am going back to climb Whitney, my third time, this July. Each time I go I try to make it up Mt Langley first. The first time got chased out by a storm, the second time could not find an easier way through the rocks. I am not a great rock scambler. Does anyone have pictures of the easiest route through the rocks near the top, or a good description. Got to make it this time! Thanks in advance.

That's a bunch of Mt. Langley albums that you can look at.

I don't know how recently your last climb was, but there are obvious tracks leading up the sand (about a million of them). The farther to the west you stay, the easier the terrain is (in my opinion).

Thank you Richard, I will check out your pictures. The last time I was up there, was two summers ago, and yes, I saw all the trails in the sand, but unfortunately the area we choose to climb the rocks, we could not get through. I will head further west next time.
Thanks.
