Why didn't you take a kite?theflyingtinman wrote:53 .. Didn't get much kitesurfing in this year yet because I was
preparing to climb Mount Shasta up until last weekend so I had
to do some real training.
It was an awesome climb.
Friday: A 3-hour hike-in to base-camp from 6800 ft to 9200 ft
with 50lb packs.
Saturday. 2am start for an 11-hour ice, snow and rock climb from
base camp to the summit at 14162ft (by way of the West Face: the
longest snowfield on the left side of the live snowcam image) followed
by a 3-hour (mostly glissade) descent back to base camp.
Sunday : hike out with the heavy packs again.
The climb team was six people and 2 guides. Three dropped out
before the summit - two of them under 40
