Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier
Elevation: 11,400'
The Mount Rainier Summit Climb led by Pete Van Deventer and Casey Grom were unable to make a summit attempt due to continual lightning last night. The teams did venture over to Ingraham Flats this morning and are currently experiencing sunshine with the cloud deck between 7,000' - 8,000’ feet. After they spend some time on the upper mountain, the teams will descend back to Camp Muir and onto Paradise.
