Mount Shasta. This mountain has been haunting me for years.
They say this mountain produces its own weather and this trip proved it. After a successful first day, we camped at 10,000’ and made a push for the 14,000’ summit on day 2.
Mother Nature had other plans, with winds picking up, freezing levels dropping and sun cups the size of a small child we had to back out around 12,000’ before the final couloir.
The trip was still amazing with an amazing crew and we’ll be back. Next year I’m just going to take the Shasta portal to the top.

Trip didn’t turn out nearly as we had hoped. Winds shutting the mountain down, rain destroying snow pack, firm icy surfaces. All I can say is we still climbed a volcano, ate some good food, and I will be back 🎿
The @sugarbowlresort uphiller.
AKA a bunch of psychos who see who can walk up and ski down the mountain the most times in 6 hours. I’m one of those psychos.
I carried Frederick up and down 4 times and won a pair of skis after🫡
