Icy Peak is a great peak to climb for several reasons. First, it probably has the best view of the North side of Shuksan possible. Also close ups of the Price Glacier, North Face, Jagged Ridge, Cloud Cap Peak and Blum. Second, Icy is reasonably close to the Hannegan or Nooksack Cirque Trailheads, so it is feasable to tubo leg Icy in one day, but easy in two. Third, it has a nice mix of snow, glacier and rock, but not a technical climb to discourage noobs. Icy Peak has three small, closely spaced summits. Our Guidebook from Beckey says that the Southeast Peak is slightly higher, but the Register and the one most mortals climb is the Northwest Peak with easier access. (SummitPost)
