Basic Glacier Climb - Mount Shuksan/Sulphide Glacier

We'll meet in Seattle the morning of day 1 and then make our way as far up FS Rd 1152 as the snow on the road will let us before we start skinning.  Meeting time TBD and will be communicated with the roster prior to the trip.

Day 1 will likely be longer than usual since we likely won't be able to make it all the way to the Shannon Ridge trailhead in our cars.

We'll carry our overnight gear and plan to camp on the glacier.  Summit day will be day 2.  

AIARE 1 and previous backcountry touring and glacier climbing experience required.

The Sulphide is a surprisingly long glacier so excellent fitness will be needed to skinning up overnight/glacier/avy gear from somewhere on the trailhead. 

If you are interested in this trip, please address your conditioning, ski touring experience, and crevasse rescue training when you request permission.
