Oh dang! I just summited Mount Shuksan this weds. Congratulations on the fisher chimney route. We just did the standard route up. Love your videos! You really motivate me to do the harder Mountains up
I just summited Mt Baker last week and saw Shuksan the whole time. The guides talked about the Fisher Chimneys route and your video got me really excited to give it a shot. Happy anniversary too! Great content and if you even sell the Montage stickers. I'd buy one!
Nice work on Baker! that one is still high on my list, hopefully next season! I haven't started making Merch for sale yet, but stay tuned! hopefully in the near future.
@@jaredempey5706thanks! We ended up doing 4 separate rappels with a 60m rope. For the most part there were numerous rap stations, we also did some down climbing on some of the easier scrambling sections. Overall the summit block is around 800 ft.
Thanks! I wore La Sportiva Aequilbriums. This was my first climb trying them out and I loved them! They preformed very well on the rock, as good as approach shoes, but also worked great in the snow and were nice for strapping crampons onto. In general this route isn't in till mid to late summer. As a spring climb it will be much for ice and snow and less rock scrambling.
How are the LS Aequilibriums? Have you used the Trango Techs? If so how are they in comparison? I really liked the techs, but they had very poor durability.
This was the first climb i had with them, and I have to say, I freaking loved them. 10/10. great on the snow, but also felt almost as good as a rock shoe for climbing. I cant speak to the long term durability as I have just purchased them, but so far they looked after 3 full days of heavy use.
I’ve had the Aequilibriums for 1 season and love them this far. They are holding up well, no signs of wear yet. I have a full review/comparison to the Trango Techs on my channel if you’re interested in learning more
Awesome climb! Love the music choices on this one as well! One quick question - what pack did you use on your approach? I’m looking for a new backpacking pack that can also handle some mild mountaineering adventures
Wow, beautiful. Thank you for sharing!

Great video. How long is the rappel off of the summit? Also, is there more than one permanent rappel station?
