Description

Join us on this exciting climbing and skiing tour on Mount Shasta, California.

For this trip, we’ll meet at our office the day before. We’ll answer all the questions and make sure that you have the necessary equipment and experience for the day ahead of us. Together, we’ll define the itinerary.

The most common climbing route is the Avalanche Gulch Route, which offers incredible views. And the most popular descending route is the Hotlum-Wintun. Nonetheless, there are many other routes available and all skiing routes offer up to 7,000 feet of exciting continuous and uninterrupted skiable terrain.

It is highly recommended that you are an advanced skier or snowboarder in order to do this trip. Skills in ice axe, crampons and rope are also necessary to reach the summit. If you’ve participated in any Ski Mountaineering Clinic before, you’ll enjoy this trip even more. It is important that, once we reach the summit, you have enough energy left to enjoy a unique ski descent.

If you’re ready for a physically challenging adventure, send your request!  

This trip will be operated by one of the 3 permit holder outfitters: Shasta Mountain Guides, Alpine Skills International and SWS Mountain Guides.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
