Mt. Rainier: Four Day Summit Climb Reaches Summit!
RMI Guide Pete Van Deventer led his Four Day Summit Climb July 2-5, 2017 to the summit of Mt. Rainier this morning. The team had good route conditions and blue skies until a cloud cap engulfed the summit. The team began their descent from the crater rim around 7:30 am. They will return to Camp Muir and then continue to Paradise.
Congratulations to today's Summit Climb Team!

My husband Luis, returned yesterday in 1 piece. After hearing all the stories, I couldn’t be more proud to be called his wife.
His physical strength, mental strength, spiritual strength & all the team effort is what helped him reach the top.
Congratulations to the team.
Thank you, Pete, Chad & Jessy for providing this experience, but I don’t think you see me anytime soon.

So happy for all who summited today! To be on the mountain on the 4th of July is the ultimate symbol of freedom. So amazing to see the transformation this last year as my husband (Jim) trained intensely twice each week. The person growth in him that I’ve witnessed is such a testimony. I can’t wait to hear all the details. Prayers of safety as you all head down today. I love you Jim… You amaze me! Misty~

To my son-in-law Jim: I’m so happy that your team had a good climb. I sure hope you were able to have some awesome views before the cloud cap set in. Safe journey to the entire team for your descent.
