Activity Notes

Mt. Shuksan sets the standard for rugged mountain beauty, with jagged edges and multiple glaciers cascading down from a high plateau. The Fisher Chimneys route is demanding, with 3rd/4th class scrambling (with full packs), steep snow, glacier travel, low 5th class climbing, and multiple short rappels. And possibly camping on snow. The full meal!

We’ll have three days of climbing, hopefully avoiding any epic days, but efficiency and team cohesion will still be critical to success. Note that Shuksan is a 6-hour drive, and our approach day starts at 9 a.m. – please count on leaving town Friday afternoon or evening and camping within a few hours of the trailhead.
