Mount Shasta Snowcamp
Snowshoe on the spectacular slopes of Mt Shasta. From the 8000 elevation of Horse Camp we have views up to the 14,162 summit of Shasta as well as marvelous vistas out west to Castle Crags, to the Trinity Alps, and the Pacific coast. On Saturday morning, well hike from Bunny Flat up Avalanche Gulch to the Sierra Clubs hut at Horse Camp, where well set up our campsite (no horses involved!!). We will then venture further up the mountain towards Lake Helen or circuit around the mountain, depending on snow and weather conditions. No mountaineering is involved; the only skills/equipment required are snowshoes (or cross-country skis if preferred).

Snowshoe on the spectacular slopes of Mt Shasta. From the 8000’ elevation of Horse Camp we have views up to the 14,162’ summit of Shasta — as well as marvelous vistas out west to Castle Crags, to the Trinity Alps, and the Pacific coast. On Saturday morning, we’ll hike from Bunny Flat up Avalanche Gulch to the Sierra Club’s hut at Horse Camp, where we’ll set up our campsite (no horses involved!!). We will then venture further up the mountain towards Lake Helen or circuit around the mountain, depending on snow and weather conditions.
No mountaineering is involved; the only skills/equipment required are snowshoes (or cross-country skis if preferred). Participants must be alumni of the Snow Camping Section Training program.
