Pete04 Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Inspired by reading and re-reading Lowell Skoog's Cascade Crest route (http://www.alpenglow.org/skiing/cascade-crest/index.html) myself and some friends are trying to link-up a Baker summit (Coleman summit/Park Glacier ski descent) with a Shuksan summit. For Shuksan, I wanted to do a Price Glacier ascent/ski descent, but the trip isn't until June. All the TRs I've seen are either in May or later like August. Does anyone have any experience on what the Price Glacier might look like in June? I realize every year is different between snowfall, spring temps, etc, etc, but I'm just looking for a big picture - "yea that's impossible" or "give it a look".

Dan_Miller Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 This would be one of the best years in awhile for it to be a reasonable thing to consider. Perhaps choose the North Face route for the Shukssn portion if things get too warm between now and your June proposed trip window. As you seem to be well aware, there are a lot of if's involved. Best of luck with the ongoing snow melt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete04 Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 I'll be watching the weather closely. Maybe we'll have to audible to the North Face. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
