Cloudripper is a 13,525-foot-elevation (4,122 meter) mountain summit located two miles east of the crest of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in Inyo County of northern California, United States.[1] It is situated in the Palisades area of the John Muir Wilderness, on land managed by Inyo National Forest. It is approximately Шаблон:Convert west of the community of Big Pine, Шаблон:Convert north-northeast of Picture Puzzle, and Шаблон:Convert south of parent Mount Agassiz. Cloudripper ranks as the 58th highest summit in California,[2] and the highest point of the Inconsolable Range.[3]

Climbing

Established climbing routes on Cloudripper:[4]

  • East Ridge via Big Pine Lakes – Шаблон:YDS
  • North Ridge via Green Lake – class 2
  • West Chute via Chocolate Lake – class 3[5]

The first ascent of the summit was made June 15, 1927, by Norman Clyde, who is credited with 130 first ascents, most of which were in the Sierra Nevada.[4][6] Other sources place the date as June 15, 1926.[7][8]

Climate

According to the Köppen climate classification system, Cloudripper is located in an alpine climate zone.[9] Most weather fronts originate in the Pacific Ocean, and travel east toward the Sierra Nevada mountains. As fronts approach, they are forced upward by the peaks, causing them to drop their moisture in the form of rain or snowfall onto the range (orographic lift). Precipitation runoff from this mountain drains east into North Fork Big Pine Creek, and northwest into headwaters of Bishop Creek.
