Shasta, Wintum-Holtum (sp?) w/ 6k ski descent

[yeoman]

Am contemplating going up Shasta this coming weekend. I've wanted to get up there all summer but it hasn't happened. I blame that on my on-going relationship with Yosemite National Park...

 

Given it was a big snow year, I believe we could start skinning between 8k-9k and get a nice long descent from the summit on skis. I only want to do this on skis (you can bring a split board, I don't mind)

But I'm not walking down for hours what can be skied in minutes.

 

I need a motivated partner who wants to do it and can convince me to go. I'd leave on the 2nd or 3rd and if we finish early, mebbie do some craggin afterwards.

 

pm if interested. I'm not around this site all that much these days so if you reply to this thread there is a chance I might not see it.

 

btw.. I'm coming from the bay area, ca. down to share a ride if it worked out.
