  Mount Whymper from the toe of the Stanley Glacier. Quadra Mountain is the first peak in the distance to the right of Whymper, and Bident Mountain is directly to the right of Quadra. In reality it is more or less a subpeak of Quadra. There are two potential scrambling routes up Whymper. The harder route goes directly up the gully below the summit, then angles left just below the final summit cliffs to gain the ridge left of the summit, then the summit. The easier route follows the same gully to roughly where the grass ends. It then traverses left and goes up to gain the lower portion of the W ridge. The W ridge is the left skyline down from the summit, then the line separating the sunlit W slopes and the shadowed S slopes. From there it follows the sunlit W slopes to the base of the cliff band and goes up a gully to gain the ridge again, then the summit.

  The steep brooding cliffs on the east/northeast apsect of Mount Whymper. This is definitely the least photographed side of Whymper.
