Glacading

Happy 4th of July!  I spent my 4th glacading down Mt. Shasta ... most fun you can have on a snow/ice covered mountain.  You use an ice ax to control your speed and slide on your butt.  If things get out of control you flip onto your belly and dig the ax into the ice/snow and try not to bust your chin open with the adze.
