Utterly spectacular photo....
True. Which is why I prefer the High Sierra. Climbing in the Cascades can be pretty painful at times. Logistics, weather, approaches, descents, etc.
The High Sierra is for alpinists who are rock-climbers at heart. The Cascades are for alpinists who are ice climbers at heart.

The Sierras don't offer enough.
In the Cascades, you can get into all sorts of trouble/fun. Mixed, hard rock, easy rock, Ice, Tons of Alpine Ice....
