Scrambling the east ridge of mount russell climbed 8/20/24

Posting the full scramble as I could not find any other content that gave a full picture of what to expect

Difficulty: 3rd class

Notes: This i an exposed but manageable scramble. The exposure on the ridge ended up not being as intense as I first thought but there are a few short sections that get not more than 5ft wide with big drops on either side. Almost any fall past the beginning easy section would most likely be fatal but I will say that there are always good holds to help. This is by no means a trail, if you are a climber with any experience you should be fine but if you are only a hiker, particularly with any fear of heights I would recommend taking along a guide or going with a group that has experience. All precautions out of the way this was an amazing day out and very fine 3rd sierra 3rd class.
