I guess it's hiking season

Having hiked to the summit of Mt. Shasta, it's hard to imagine getting lost. It's a treeless cone, basically, and very loose gravelly footing. You can pretty well shoot a straight path down, sliding most of the way.

Hopefully they didn't succumb to exposure! On my hike my friend and I tented at about 12,000 ft on Labor Day weekend, and although it was over 100 degrees during the day, down in the valley below, a pot of water was half frozen the next morning. You can see in the pic there was still some snow around in early September!
