JoshK Posted October 16, 2002 Posted October 16, 2002 Anybody got any? Thinking of attempting it this weekend and can't find much recent about it. It'll obviously be very broken this time of the year, so I'm looking for anything more specific. thanks, -josh Quote
ivan Posted October 16, 2002 Posted October 16, 2002 i just guess either nobody loves you or they're too focused on getting wasted and flailing up something on castle rock to think about some big scary glaciated beast far too close to those pesky canadians Quote
JoshK Posted October 16, 2002 Author Posted October 16, 2002 Everybody loves Shuksan, right? I think it's me they don't love. Quote
mattp Posted October 16, 2002 Posted October 16, 2002 Everybody loves Mount Shuksan, but despite it's place in Fifty Crowded Climbs, the Price Glacier is not necessarily the route that everybody loves on that mountain. The scenery is fantastic in the Price Glacier cirque, but a climb of the Price Glacier itself requires one to spend a lot of time in harm's way. Having said that, this may be a relatively safe time of the year in there because most of what is going to fall down this Summer already has done so although the seracs can topple any time. Be careful, move fast, and have fun! Take pictures and post them for all of us to enjoy. Quote
Dru Posted October 16, 2002 Posted October 16, 2002 Just like the picture in the McLane guide says, superimposed on a chaotic, ugly mass of broken seracs and hanging ice cliffs (photo taken in September): "Good Luck" Quote
JoshK Posted October 16, 2002 Author Posted October 16, 2002 Hehe...well said, Matt. Yup, I was pretty surprised at the lack of internet-beta available, due to it's presence in 50 crowded climbs. If we end up going for Price, I'll be sure to post pics. -josh Quote
