An amazing trip with two equally extraordinary friends. This is Chad Brenner and my first ascent up Shasta, for Bob Pickering I believe this makes it his 34th trip.
Route: Ascend Casaval Ridge, descend Avalanche Gulch
Total time: 13 hours round trip
Gear: Helmet, axe, trekking poles, extra clothe for weather, Bob's compass (came in handy), 3L fluid/food.
