Gorgeous page for a spectacular route. When Derek, Larry & I did Nooksack Tower jillions of years ago, it was meant to be a warm-up/scouting mission for Price Glacier. The tower was about as much as we could could handle; we never went back for the Price.
All your pics for the page have the same title. Was that deliberate?

Re: Nice one.
After crossing under Nooksack Tower and nearly getting the chop from a TV sized falling block I took Nooksack Tower off my tick list. Didn't want to have to cross under that again.
Does anyone out there have suggestions on the best time if year to do this route? It sounds like early season might be less technical, but possible avalanche danger? Would mid-June be "early" season?

I'll look into the photo labeling.

Nice!I put on about a thousand miles to go climb that hump a few years ago. Photos like yours are what got me there in the first place!

Re: Nice!Thanks! Mount Shuksan is iconic. I've climbed or skiied it by every compass point, some routes multiple times. Every route was stellar.
