    Looking for Partner(s) to SkiMo PNW Volcanos This Spring/Early Summer - Esp 5/24-5/27

    Hi folks, I am looking for a partner/group to ski mountaineer several volcanos in the PNW this spring/early summer. Dunno how much longer I am going to be in PNW, so really trying to crush em (Baker, Shuksan, Hood, St Helens, Glacier, Olympus) this year.

    Credentials:

    • 20+ ski tours around PNW, CO, UT, WY
    • Summited Rainier unguided in '22
      • Toured up to Muir, slept, left skis, booted our way up to the summit and to Muir, then skied down from Muir.

    • Attempted Hood in '23
      • Toured up beyond Palmer to the fumaroles, when transitioning to crampons my buddy was experiencing serious altitude sickness and we had to turn around

    • Appalachian Trail in '16
    • Advanced skier - 30+ ski days on-resort for the last 4 years
    • Avie 1 course complete in '22
    • Intro To Mountaineering course completed on Mt Hood in '22
    • 31 yo, 200lbs, reasonably fit. Been doing more weight training than endurance as of late.



    I am keen on doing something multi-day over memorial day weekend. Ideally Baker or Shuksan, if I can find any willing victims or join a group.

    Shuksan and Olympus aren’t volcanoes

    Glacier has been on my list for some time. Ping me with dates and I will gladly accompany. Been to the top of, and skied the rest. You don't want to ski Olympus, trust me. I mean unless you're content carrying your skis for 30 miles and not being able to ski from the true summit. Happy to do Baker or Adams for SW chutes again any time. I could entertain Rainier if it involves Fuhrer finger early season, and if a few outings go well first. 1500 ft/hr, all gear, AIRE 1.
