Fond memories. Did this as a teenager in 1976. The glaciers have really receeded!

This is a great route. Hopefully the glaciers maintain or grow.

Very nice! I just did some hiking at Mt Baker in October and it was awesome too can;t wait to go back to this area.

Thank you. Yes, both Stephen and Kristie are great guides.

great video! How was the climbing on the summit pyramid compared to the chimneys?

The pyramid was not too difficult although we took one of the easier routes on the pyramid to save time

Well done all around!! New Sub. I'm doing this next spring and was wondering what tents you used and more importantly what was your footwear choice(s)? THX

Thank you for watching and commenting. We used North Face tents. I wore my LA Sportiva Trango Tech boots with black diamond crampons

short roping clients means that if the client falls the person in lead will too. The old rule "anchor all Belays' is prudent. Slower, yes, but vastly safer. kind of surprised and shocked that a guide service would do what's shown in this video.

Thank you for the comment. I used Alpine Ascents for this trip and several others. I recommend them for guided trips.

Was the guides first name Stephen? Don’t remember his last name, but I climbed Denali with him in 2018

​@Ryan Kemp Yes, Stephen was my guide. I believe he does Denali too. He did a good job on Shuksan as did our other guide.
