The Swinging Sultanas

Skied by Fred Marmsater, Kip Garre, Courtney Phillips and Andrew McLean (photos).

Ski descent of the Sultana Ridge, Alaska - June, 2009.

Mt. Crossen - the peak that I shall never climb or ski again, thank god. It is not a bad peak in itself, I've just been up and down it so many times (eight?) with a heavy pack and in shitty conditions that I'd be thrilled to never do it again. We accessed the ridgeline via the forth continous line of snow on the right. Out basecamp was down by the second stip of snow..
