Glad to hear you guys made it. I was one of the women skiers who talked to your group on Thursday on the way up. Great pictures too!
It's dumping right now on the mountain. Headed up Green Butte and there is about 3 inches of freshies. April Powder Chowder Skiing! Looks like some CORN skiing in the near future.

telewoman: It must be nice to live so close to the mountain. About how many times a year do you go up there?

dynamokiev: How did you like Sergeant's Ridge, compared with Casaval?

It looks like Andy from North Carolina. He was the only one in our group wearing an orange jacket.

Thanks for posting the photos. It might be interesting to try the Sergeant's Ridge route sometime.

I'm drooling over those pics!! Very nice!!

hope I can take some more this or next weekend from casaval ridge..

WHO IS COMMING OUT THIS WEEKEND?! April 24-25th

Jeez, wish I could make the trip down. Would love to join you guys and climb it. As someone on here recently wrote me, "it's a great mountain to climb." Enjoy.

I would like to come down and give it a go in the next month or two if anyone's interested.

Looks like you guys had good conditions Nice work, guys.

Did anyone get current pics of that upper section of Cascade Gulch & the Whitney Glacier ? C'mon, help a brother out.

Very nice pics! Looks like we'll be there Monday/Tuesday, even though the forecast is a little iffy (bit of a trip of AZ, doing an acclimation hike on Boundary/Montgomery). Heading up Cassaval, hoping the Friday-Sunday weather window holds up a while.

Wish it weren't so freakin' far. From Socal, you need 4 days off to have a realistic shot at it.

Organizer of this thread: do you mind changing it to “Shasta April 23-25th” to see who is planning to go this coming weekend?
HOW ABOUT A BIG CA SP MEET ON CASAVAL?!

Pls start early and break trail for us old guys

It seems like a nice window for this coming weekend. I am planning to go for the summit Sunday by Casaval ridge.

Unfortunately, it's a 15-hour drive straight from Phoenix to Shasta. I've done that once and was wiped out by the time we got to the base of Misery Hill. Depending on how the weather is, we might go for a single push rather than camping at a high-spot.

I think the original thread *was* for this past weekend...slightly taken over by people asking for info about mountain conditions (myself included). Just hoping that snowshoes are not required

Nah, just joking around If you look at the forecast and the webcam you'll notice that it's been snowing there. I'd pack snowshoes.

I doubt you'd get very far without snowshoes

Myself and Joe are attempting a summit bid on Sunday morning. We are planning to sleep at the Bunny Flat trailhead Friday night. Start our mini expedition on Saturday morning early. We have never climbed Sergeants Ridge. If anyone needs partners this weekend we are down. We are from Chico, heading out Friday afternoon. Also we could use some tips. Any help would be great.

Thanks Ryan
