Mount Shuksan, Nooksack Cirque. Pete Doorish and I visited a summit immediately northeast of Nooksack Tower by climbing from a camp near the northeastern arm of the Price Glacier. The climbing was enjoyable at the outset, but the rock became increasingly friable As the rock deteriorated, the views improved, with the summit providing a culmination of these extremes.
