I've climbed Adams | Shasta via west face and the fun playground on the back side "Hotlum Glacier" | as well as the DC route on Rainier... Im going to Hood next week and staying at government camp 5/23 to 5/27... pm me if your interesting in the hogsback... I'd like to first ascent with no skis and then possible ski the summit on my 2nd or 3rd day if weather permits
