Mt. Shuksan Climb - Fischer Chimneys (3 days) with Mountain Madness
Mt. Shuksan (9,127'), the most photographed mountain in the world, is a massive, complex mountain which offers abundant learning opportunities and is an excellent location for the beginning or advanced climber to gain valuable mountaineering experience. Our route ascends the Fischer Chimneys which is a longer, more advanced climb than the Sulphide Glacier route and is a great introduction to intermediate level climbs. Our ascent follows a scenic glacier-carved valley to a little lake overlooking a spectacular basin. The climb first involves easy rock climbing in a series of chimneys, then moderate glacier climbing over parts of three different glaciers, and concludes with a 5.0 ascent of the summit pyramid! Join us on our climb of the Fischer Chimneys and share in the beauty and grandeur of alpine climbing.
