I guess this mountain does not need any introduction and the Cassin Ridge is the classic line to the summit. We climbed this route in about 55 hours (two bivouacs) from schrund to summit in 2008, which wasn't fast but not too slow either. It's a great alpine climb due to its length and awesome views.

I need to comment on the Talkeetna Burger- looks like it was the real lifer version of the Simpsons "Krusty Burger: Bacon, Pork, and Ham

Another good one. As to V's burger, you would have to suffer up some alpine monster and be completely depleted to eat that thing and I love meat

Another awesome installment. I am savoring each and every one.
The climbs are spectacular and the photography astounding.
And I've never earned that burger at the West Rib Pub.
When I was there it said it was free if you ate the whole thing. I stuck to the scones at The Roadhouse.
