Shuksan summer ski

July 5, 2004

Cyril Benda skis the upper North Face of Mount Shuksan with Price Lake 4,000 vertical feet below him.

It was my first lap with skis on Mount Shuksan's North Face, with Cyril. It had been on my mind to ski it since Jeff Manor and I climbed it in icy fall conditions. All I had was a disposable camera and I can't even find the 'good' versions of those pictures, but that's all right! It was my first taste of one of my all-time favorite ski slopes.
