Mt Buckner's and Mt Maude's North Face are also viable alternatives to Mt Shuksan. I am ok with this.. if you prefer, or if you have done Shuksan north b4.

Hi! I'm looking for climbing partners on an after-climb. Before that, I'm doing an Alpine Ice Course with AAI, to refresh my technical climbing. The course includes a summit of Mt Baker from the north ridge/ coleman headwall. My course ends 24 July. Below are my dates, and I am flexible with it. 1) Mt Shuksan North Face - Fisher Chimneys (29 July - 31 July; 3 days) Guided climb, ratio 2:1. Cost sharing arrangement, it's cheaper for us to share the guide. i.e. $725/$750 for each of us. Cost includes: All meals while on the mountain, tents, stoves, cook kits, group climbing equipment, and guide services. Climbers need to have their own personal climbing equipment. 2) Mt Rainier - route to be planned (5 Aug - 8 Aug; 3/4 days) Unguided, max team size: 4, min: 2. Climbers need to have all their own equipment including ice tools, snow protection -ice screws - snow pickets .., etc. Pack your own food and stove. I can share my expedition tent, and a single rope. Dates are flexible +/- 1 day Looking for climbers who have completed a technical mountaineering course before, and have some experience on their own climbing in an alpine snow and glacier environment. I am aged 26, and have thus far done all my alpine climbing in New Zealand's Southern Alps. I am currently based in Singapore, and will be in Seattle this July - Aug 2008. Post here if you would like to discuss further. I need to make a booking for the guides for Mt Shuksan ASAP We can also chat on the phone/video chat or email. Cheers, eric

Hi, when are you doing Rainier.. any dates? I'll be at Rainier National Park on 13th July 2008. And I intend to spend the next couple of days summitting Rainier, exploring some of the more technical routes. Will leave Rainier park either on 17 or 18 July back to Seattle. Let me know your plans.
