The North Ridge of Mt. Baker also known as Kulshan, is one of the 50 classic climbs of North America. For good reason this is an alpine test piece of the North Cascades. The route begins on the North side of Mt. Baker from the hogsback camp. You will begin with a complex glacier crossing followed by multiple pitches of beautiful ice up to grade 4 in difficulty. The route tops out with more steep snow and complex glacier depositing you on the summit of Kulshan (10,781 ft). You will then descend back to the hogback camp via the Coleman Deming route.
