This route was developed from a climb of Whipple Mountain on March 14,
2004.  Whipple Mountain is in San Bernardino County, California, south of the town
of Needles on the east side of highway 95.  This is Route C as described in the
Desert Peaks Section's Road and Trail Guide.  On highway 95 take the paved 
Havasu Lake Road southeast for 9.5 miles and then turn right onto a dirt power
line road (WHIP00).  Go southeast on this good road for 6.8 miles and turn right
at junction WHIP01.  Then drive 3.9 miles and turn left at WHIP02.  After 1.6 miles
park at the abandoned War Eagle Mine (WHIP03).  Hike south in the large wash
and go left when the wash splits (WHIP04).  Cross some low ridges and enter a 
large canyon and at WHIP05 you will be below a peak of 2005 feet shown on the map.  
Continue in the canyon which requires some scrambling over large boulders.  
Bear left at WHIP06 at a divide in the canyon.  At WHIP08 go left as the canyon 
opens up.  Head south toward an easy ridge.  WHIP09 is on this ridge.  Move left 
into a steeper chute that goes up to the ridge top at WHIP12.  From here it is an 
easy walk east to the highpoint.  This route is 4.3 miles one-way with a gain of 
about 2800 feet.  The ascent takes about 4 1/2 hours.  3/04  RLC
