Shasta, take 3

Last year I tried twice to do the single day trip to climb mt shasta. and both times i failed. last weekend i finally did the 2 day camping trip. we hiked up to hidden valley and camped one night. then early the second day, we hiked up to the summit. the trip was awesome! despite all the snow melt, there was still enough for some glissading on the way down (that's sliding on your butt down the slope). i'm looking forward to going again next year (earlier in the season when there's a lot more snow)!
