jmeizis, did you climb NF Shuksan in mid September 2013? I think I may have bumped into you. You came out to get trainfor the AMGA exam and said it was the hardest climb you had done.
FYI, NF Shuksan is famous for its bush whack. I climbed it with Colin Haley and another friend who is a wily old Cascades hard man and we managed to make a relatively easy approach. There are many good climbs that do not involve bush whacking, TFT included. All of the climbs I mentioned in my posts above have easy approaches by Cascades standards with minimal bushwhacking (except NF Shuksan, which is still not bad).
