neswstar Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Trip: shasta - clear creek Date: 5/23/2014 Trip Report: Climbed Shasta over Memorial day up the Clear creek route on the south side. Hiked in on Friday ~2000 feet, skinned the last half into base camp. Saturday started up early. We carried our skies to mushroom rock and left them. Being kind of new to AT the remainder of the route felt a bit to steep to us There was snow for our tent to the summit. great sunny day. came back down and skied from Mushroom to tent ~4000 feet. Great gentle terrain. Spent another night and skied out the next day. No photos as I haven't figured it out yet. Highly recommend this route for beginner AT. The crowds were no where close to Avalanche gulch. Gear Notes: skies, crampons and an ice axe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
