I'm 14, and ever since i've seen this mountain after I climbed mt lassen, its been a huge dream of mine to one day complete this, someday I will climb Mt. Shasta.
@@abone2pick White mountain is the easiest California 14er... Mount Whitney is probably the second easiest (via the hiking trail), Shasta still is class 3.
While most climb Shasta in two days, a one day trek is possible as well. I climbed Shasta in July 2017, and after the heavy '16/'17 winter, there was actually more snow there in July than you had in June of '18. Started at 11pm from Bunny Flat, passed through Lake Helen at 2am, summited at 9 or 10am, and back to the car at 2pm. Was so difficult physically and mentally. And yeah the section from Lake Helen to the Red Banks is very tough! I believe it's actually around 2700ft in just under a mile. Congrats on your summit!
I've lived on Mount Shasta at 4100 ft. for 28 years, but haven't hiked it due to my fear of heights. But your video of the experience really helps me know what summiting is like. Until this point I've only read about and looked at pictures of climbing Mount Shasta. Thanks!
Boss Im a long time subscriber from Florida and have had shasta on my bucket list for a long time. I couldnt find one video that sums up the whole experience. this just popped into my feed and its so well done. I know its not easy to document something like this when on a strenuous hike because I did a Yosemite Vernal falls tutorial. I know it was very windy for you, did you have a wind muff or deadcat for the mic or was it all in camera mic for simplicity? really appreciate this I knew it couldnt be done in one day but didnt realize all thats involved to be succsessful. this vid should be required watching for all attempting shasta. respect.
Thanks for the comment and I really appreciate the feedback. When I was researching doing the hike I probably watched 30 videos and I couldn't find any that really showed me what was in store, so I tried to create exactly what I would have wanted to see. I appreciate that you thought I did that! I brought my mic with a deadcat on it and used it when I could but sometimes I didn't want to take it out and just rocked the on-camera sound. I will have to check out your Vernal Falls video as well!
I went on the same day as you. I see my dad and I were in the video! We made it to Misery Hill though. Congrats on reaching the peak! The winds were brutal!
Thanks for the comment, so fun you were on the mountain the same day! It was crazy windy at the top, we were only there for like 10 min before heading down.
You made it! Some day I want to do this one! But I'm still a beginner right now. I'm gonna enjoy the hills and peaks in SoCal soon. Mt. Baldy is on my list. You sure looked pooped when you got back to the motel, you didn't even take us to a restaurant. Thanks for the video.
Awesome! Your videos have inspired me to hike more of California. Living here my whole life and I've only done a few major hikes and smaller hikes. Your video style is great too, keep them coming!
You did a great job showing how hard the hike is. Shasta is no joke and you need to have some mountaineering experience and common sense to complete the trip safely. I watched a gal slide over 1000 feet from the red banks before finally stopping luckily with minor injuries. Everyone needs to learn self arrest skills before attempting this hike. Totally worth it though. A sunrise from the red banks is pretty epic! Congrats on completing the hike. As a native Northern Californian Shasta is a very special place to me.
Nothing like a coffee shop to get your day started. Absolutely beautiful scenery. I'm sure filming made this trip a lot harder. Well done and congrats on making it to the top!
Great documentation. I'm booked for North side Hotlum-Bolam route next summer. Looks like yall had great conditions minus the wind. What did you do for your training routine? Im in southern VA so I have access to the App trail but no real elevation over 3K.
I’m so jealous! Watched after your mention of it in your I-5 roadtrip video. I attempted Mt. Shasta for my 40th milestone birthday in 1996- but never made it to the top and never went back. Now I am 65 it’s not going to happen. Took the same exact route you did, but we spent the night before at the Bunny Hill trailhead to get some altitude acclimation. While I am an experienced backpacker I had never used full crampons or an iceax before. There was alot more snow on the mountain when we did it. Also stayed at Helen Lake and had a horrible night’s sleep. Should have gotten up at 2:30a like you did… instead finally dozed off when we should have gotten up. Oversleeping until it started to get light our summit attempt was really doomed from the start. By the time we were climbing up the chute to the Redbanks the snow was getting soft which made the going even tougher. Unlike the notorious Everest climbers that same year we set and honored our turnaround time realizing when we got to the top of the Redbanks that we didn’t have enough time or energy to make it safely to the Summit and back. So we turned around and glissading back down to Helen Lake in a few minutes what had taken us hours to climb. I am disappointed still that we did not make it to the summit, but watching your video confirms we made the right decision that day
Your video came up in the suggested video list while I was watching some C# programming videos. I had just climbed Shasta myself, so I thought I would watch it. And then I realize that's my REI Passage 1 (orange/gray) tent with me in the door to the upper left of you while you are flattening the snow for your tent at about the 4:00 mark. And my tent again at the 4:30 mark. My friends and I did it on Friday the 22nd. But we stayed at Helen Lake and hiked out Saturday. Nice video by the way.
How does the physicality of summiting Shasta compare with hiking Mt. Whitney? I did Whitney in 1 day last year and I'm wondering how that will physically compare with my 2024 Shasta attempt (Avalanche Gulch), which will be spread over 2.25 days.
Well made and informative video. Thank you for all the tips and reflection on your climb. I'm hoping to climb this next bear, but I definitely have a lot to prepare for. Thank you for sharing! :)
When I summited Shasta in the early 90s, totally exhausted and altitude sick, a young Colorado woman in plastic mountaineering boots and shorts came jogging up Misery Hill, looking as if she'd just jumped out of her car. Damn.
Can you do a video on how you train? I’m in SoCal so I could probably use some of the same mountains to prepare on. Did you just do progressively harder mountains? Work out at the gym? Where did you practice self arresting?
Well done. Made this hike twice - in June of 1980 and then again in 1981. Only made it to the Thumb (red banks) in 1980 due to some in our group having altitude sickness. But made it all the way in 1981. Went straight from the cabin to the top. Misery Hill lives up to it's name, indeed. There was a lot more snow on the peak back then.
by any chance could you guys see. Black lassic? I could see Shasta and lassen from the top of it. and the trinity alps. it's kind of a smaller mountain
Fantastic video! I live right under this mountain and have never climbed it. I would absolutely love to do it and you gave a great idea of what it would be like. Looks like an amazing thrilling experience
Neat. But i wonder where those secret entrances are for the Aliens that live under Mount Shasta, also that'd be pretty sweet if you could take a GT SnoRacer down from the top.
Josh, do you have a special strap on the front of your backpack (at the very beginning of the video), that allows you to carry your DSLR camera on the front like that? I'd love to be able to do that with my Canon.
Yea, check out the other video I posted today where I show all of my gear but it is this Peak Designs Clip which lets me attach my camera to my bag amzn.to/2MDWNmv
In Texas finishing up my Nursing degree, once I’m done I plan on moving back to California, I watch these videos to give myself a bucketlist for when I get back. I was raised in California but never did half the things you have filmed! Love your videos man! Oh yeah and I also wondered, do you work or is traveling your job? No hate, just envy lol
Well done. Climbed the north side in June 2006 up the Hotlum-Wintun Glaciers route, after hiking up/down Mount Lasken a couple of days earlier (on the drive way up from S.F./ex Canada...). A great experience, great views, signed that book[!]. Nice to see video.
Congrats, sir. Ive been subscribed and watching your videos for a long time now. From an overweight guy, I'm happy to see that you were able to condition yourself for that hike. Great job!
An alterative is to drive to Panther Meadows Campground at 8,000' (end of road) and make it a hard 1 day ascent. Only 12 walk-in campsites so it''s important to show up on a weekday early to reserve a site, and it's only open from July 1st to winter snowfall.
Great footage and narrative- thanks for posting! I went up a few weeks ago (mid June 2023) and it was like an entirely different mountain. The entire mountain was deep in snow from the big '22/'23 winter. Even the Bunny Flat trailhead was under snow and the cabin at Horse camp was almost buried up to the roof. We camped at 50/50 Flat and got an alpine start but the weather went from bad to worse with 40 knot winds and fog/semi-whiteout halfway up to Red Banks plus deep post-holing most of the way up. Turned around near the base of Misery Hill with 80 knot gusts and complete whiteout. Luckily we had very good guides. Would absolutely love to do it on a blue-bird day. Perhaps next year :) Cheers.
Good video guys. Lived here my whole life and haven't been more than about three quarters of the way yet. But Grandma did it and by God I'll get it done LOL.
Did Shasta back in the 90's, but from the north side. Steep and alot of snow. Definitely mountaineering skills required. Was great but soo windy at the summit at times had to sit down. The bagged Whitney via mountaineers route. On the way home Great times.
This is incredible. Way too adventurous any blood, due to altitude but really enjoy your channel. Sending off to my teacher who wants to do this with his wife. Thanks!
I worked in Red Bluff, CA for several years. I could see Mount Shasta from my office window, nearly 90 miles away. I climbed Mount Lassen many times during my time in Red Bluff but never had the time to climb Mount Shasta.
Imagine hiking a volcano and it trimmers while on it 👀. Just drove past it all last week (truck driver) and although it's a beautiful view I'll let you guys have the climbing.
The last two guys glissading are holding the ice axe pick towards them and would some day end up stabbing themselves. People need to get the basics right before doing these things.
I love your videos!! So well made, informative and entertaining! I've watched this probably 20 times. I'm inspired. I'll start with Runyon Canyon and hopefully work my way all the way up the summit of Mount Shasta one day. Thank you !!
Years ago on my 2nd trip up Mt Shasta on the 4th of July the snow at Helen Lake was 30 feet deep. You could glissade from the summit to well below Helen Lake. Looking at Mt Shasta today, the snow is pretty skimpy!
Nice video and congrats! Just tried shasta a few days ago in a day in heavy snowpack and had to bail due to too much blowing ice and snow -- looks so insanely different in warmer weather!

One tip they didn't mention but make sure to remove your crampons before glissading, it can cause nasty injuries if you don't. Also, great video!
Also, at 9:26, keep your ice axe pick away from your body.
Agreed! Though if you didn't know that already you probably shouldn't be climbing up there without someone experienced lol
@@joshuarowe5571do they use the pick part as a brake to control the speed?

@@joshuarowe5571 thank you! I’m hoping to climb Shasta this spring/summer! 🙏🏼
Major respect. Glad to see you're on the 14K club. Shasta is intense. Congrats.

May your journey up it be safe and amazing! 🙏🙌
You'll do it! 💪
Probably the easiest 14.000 peak in California. If u do it on a really hot summer day you need almost no equipment.
It's waiting for you bud :)

Did you pay for the tour or did you do everything on your own?
We did everything on our own as most people in the group had previous experience on hikes like this.

Excellent Video! Well documented. Congrats on the Summit. I am now Subscribed your Channel Rocks!!
How does this compare to Mount Whitney (Mountaineers Route)? In terms of difficulty, steepness, intensity?
Mont Whitney 14508 very coul,,nice video broh nex agosto my turn Mont shasta
my old stomping grounds..

Is it possible for a 15 year old to reach the peak?
lol age has nothing to do with this and has more to do with endurance and comfort with snow travel
Great video!!! By what time you guys reached each points and finally summit?
The purple internet postauricularly save because workshop architecturally want save a physical animal. healthy, six battle
Stacy was here.
by any chance could you guys see. Black lassic? I could see Shasta and lassen from the top of it. and the trinity alps. it's kind of a smaller mountain
It's summit height is equal to Base camp of Mt Annapurna, Nepal 😂 ...
Why do people say Alien live near shatner they live further away unless they are guiding yo away from where they actually live. In the Ocean.
JULY 1975 full moon, reaching summit as moon set in west with shadow of mountain cast as sun rose in the east. Scene is etched into my mind.
Lol 6 is not an early start
People call me negative, oh well. But there's a but load of chemtrails ruining the scenery.
Does anyone know how this compare to Mt. Whitney Mountaineers Route in difficulty?
Dang so many people up there. That part would kinda be a bummer in my opinion. But nice job!
Congrats on you achievement and not letting conspiracy bs deter you
Damn that’s admirable. I’m terrified of heights but I think that’s one of the coolest accomplishments ever.
Fantastic video! I live right under this mountain and have never climbed it. I would absolutely love to do it and you gave a great idea of what it would be like. Looks like an amazing thrilling experience
Do you leave your tent and unnecessary gear at the camp spot? Or do you summit with everything
Wow you guys got some great weather! It's always windy up there, but could be so much worse :)
Thanks, ya I watched your video on the wind and I am glad we didn't have crazy wind like that!
You mean you didn'tget to meet any aliens or see any ufos while you were on the mountain? Sucks to be you . Lol
I am 11 and I have climbed whitney and lassen and just knocked down one more mount shasta
Straight up ripped off Mediocre Amateur's music.
arent there like 7 glaciers on shasta? i was surprised that you guys werent roped up for crevasse rescue. i guess all went well then
Dude hope to see you do the Half Dome cable trail soon
I did it a few years ago but unfortunately didn't record it so I will have to do it again sometime!
I ain't leavin till the Lemurian from Telos scoops me up in tha disc
Clear a way and challenge a dirtbiker , largest jump record
I climbed Mt Shasta at 13 it was tough but not bad
Awesome! My only concern is the bathroom...
I'm surprised someone don't throw the book off the mountain
See any UFO's up there? My Shasta has a lot of sightings
Amazing hike!!
I agree, it was crazy for sure!
I am impressed by your video. Very well done....
Holy cow! Impressive! I would like the sliding down on my butt part 😜
Excellent job to all of you 🏆
haha ya that was one of the best parts!
Great video man!
What an amazing Hike to Mt Shasta ! You guys and gals are badass ...such an inspiring Video !! Thanks for Sharing this Craaazy ass adventure !
Thanks Ian, glad to see you watched the video as well! It was a crazy adventure and Amie hiked like a pro, leaving me in the dust on the mountain!
Born and raised here and would never do this, so I enjoyed the video lol.
You go Josh and Amy! I'm impressed! Great video!
Thank you!
Neat. But i wonder where those secret entrances are for the Aliens that live under Mount Shasta, also that'd be pretty sweet if you could take a GT SnoRacer down from the top.
Josh, do you have a special strap on the front of your backpack (at the very beginning of the video), that allows you to carry your DSLR camera on the front like that? I'd love to be able to do that with my Canon.

How cold did you get at night? What month was it ?
How did you know where to go without a guide?
another great video you two, really enjoying your adventures... peace from San Diego
Thanks for watching, this was a crazy adventure for sure.
Great video of Mt. Shasta.
Did Shasta back in the 90's, but from the north side. Steep and alot of snow. Definitely mountaineering skills required. Was great but soo windy at the summit at times had to sit down.
The bagged Whitney via mountaineers route. On the way home
Great times.

When doing the Avalanche Gulch route do you need ropes and an anchor? It does not look like you are using them. Looking to do this myself. Thanks!
What's a good mt. Shasta mountain guide to get for summiting? I don't have alot of experience
Imagine hiking a volcano and it trimmers while on it 👀. Just drove past it all last week (truck driver) and although it's a beautiful view I'll let you guys have the climbing.

looks epic just driving by shasta is stunning can't imagine hiking!
Ya, it was a crazy adventure for sure!

The last two guys glissading are holding the ice axe pick towards them and would some day end up stabbing themselves. People need to get the basics right before doing these things.

Beatiful I did it ready Shasta too
Years ago on my 2nd trip up Mt Shasta on the 4th of July the snow at Helen Lake was 30 feet deep. You could glissade from the summit to well below Helen Lake. Looking at Mt Shasta today, the snow is pretty skimpy!
Super cool want to try too👍👍👍👍
Was this where that guy went missing?
Nice video and congrats! Just tried shasta a few days ago in a day in heavy snowpack and had to bail due to too much blowing ice and snow -- looks so insanely different in warmer weather!
Thanks for the nice informative video Wonder if the mountain will be crowded in July August?
Don’t forget the suntan lotion
