Great photo's....I've been over and near Shasta many times...whats that climb like?..I can't imagine it.

It takes some mountaineering experience and equipment. By all means not a day hike, although climbing Shastina in one full day is not uncommon, I've done it. Main Shasta is climbed in 2-3 days.

I thought -12C was colder than recommended?

I flew it at -22C with no problems. Just keep batteries warm before taking off. Low temperature does reduce the flight time though.
