Hi Brent, Nice to hear

Hi Brent,

Nice to hear from you again.  I have emailed you the climb itinerary.  Yes, we will make a summit climb.  The route we climb will depend on conditions.  Early season (May) will probably be on the West Face or East side.  In June, we will climb one of the north side glacier routes.   We hope you can join us again on Shasta!  -Chris

Hello, I am an avid outdoorsman and consider myself a strong backpacker/hiker. I have average rock climbing skills. I want to get into mountaineering, and I want to be challenged. I also want to learn how to mountaineer well enough to go out on my own. Would this be the right course? Does this finish with a Shasta summit, or would I be able to summit by myself after the class? Thank you!
