Mt. Rainier: Five Day Team Catches the Sunset on the Summit

July 11, 2023

Posted by: Abby Westling, Ben Luedtke

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 14,410'

The Five Day Climbing team with RMI Guides Abby Westling and Ben Luedtke climbed last night and reached the summit as the sun was setting. The team spent their first day on the mountain with an acclimatization climb to Ingraham Flats. On day two they took advantage of a full night’s rest and chose to do a sunset climb, a rare and special treat for the climbers to see the stunning alpenglow on Mt. Rainier.

Congratulations Team!
