Another day on Baker but the weather came in a flash.From sunny to boom whiteout.Forcing zero visibility on the summitt.Faint tracks to follow, where's up, where's down.Finally gaining the ridge and the mountain Gods greeted us to sunny conditions back on the glacier.

I love the Fugazi soundtrack with the wind noise on top-Very cool video!

Glad to hear you like fugazi!

I told my brother Andy it would be unique playing fugazi!

I think I started listening to fugazi as part of the skateboard culture!
This canadian loves the cascades!

Wish I could make it to the slush cup,looks like a blast!


Glad you liked the tune.One of my all time favorite bands.

I hadn’t listened to them in a while but now they are stuck in my head.
I’ll definitely try to summon up the Fugazi energy & determination next time I’m dragging it up a volcano.

Props to ya for keeping-on and summiting in the whiteout!
