PeakBeggar Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) Trip: Mt. Shuksan - White Salmon and Hell's Highway Date: 3/26/2013 Trip Report: My bud Scotty and I tackled Shuksan on Tuesday after a failed attempt at going up to Ruth last Saturday/Sunday. We left the car at about 2 a.m. and were back by 6 p.m., on the summit at 1 pm. Trip report can be found on my blog http://cascadiastan.blogspot.com/2013/03/mt-shuksan-via-white-salmon-hells.html and a video account can be found here as well. PS if you know who these nice people are - http://imgur.com/Y0Fj8fv - tell them we said "hey!" Gear Notes: Used Glacier rope (one short section), splitboard crampons, crampons, two ice tools Approach Notes: very hard snow on the lower elevations in the morning, very horrendously sloppy snow on the lower elevations in the afternoon. Otherwise pretty standard Edited March 29, 2013 by PeakBeggar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainsandsound Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Nice work. Good to see you again at Pine lake. Being back in a fly-by state, these TRs are tough; part inspiration, part torture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
