Casaval Ridge Climb on Mt Shasta (video)
Posted: Fri May 25, 2012 4:48 pm
Climbing Mt Shasta via Casaval Ridge route (Grade III) on May 19-20, 2012.
This trip report video covers overall the whole route: walking from Bunny Flat to Horse Camp, climbing to the Casaval Ridge Base Camp at around 10,000 feet, ascending several steep slopes, crossing Catwalk, Misery Hill, and approaching the summit. There are also some shots of West Face and Shastina as well as Avalanche Gulch. Shot with Sony DSC-HX7V (primary) & GoPro (helmet mount).
So you can see the conditions on the mountain over that weekend, but also for those who have never climbed this route, it may be a good resource of what to expect.
