Mt. Rainier: Expeditions Skills Seminar - Moves into Camp Muir

Posted by:

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 10,080'

Facebook Logo
Today team Expedition Skills Seminar - Paradise was relieved to crawl out of our tents to clear skies and warm temps. Last night, directly after arriving in camp after crevasse rescue training we were graced with a purifying rain burst but then rudely interrupted by a brief but intense lightning and thunder storm. It cleared in time for dinner and a peaceful sleep. After packing up camp this morning, a stimulating walk through a large crevasse field and icy section brought us to Camp Muir at 10,060 feet. Here we will rest and prepare for our summit climb tonight. Folks are happy to be moved into the bunk house here and even happier to hand off some group gear to a guide heading down hill. Yea for lighter packs! Wish us luck tonight on our climb. RMI Guide Adam Knoff

Today's Four Day Summit Climbs led by RMI Guides Brent Okita & Billy Nugent reached the summit crater of Mt. Rainier just before 7 am PT. Brent reported clear skies, a windless and gorgeous day. The smoke from the Eastern Washington fires seems to have cleared and the cloud deck is below Paradise at about 5,000’. The teams will return to Camp Muir in the late morning and then continue their descent to Paradise. We look forward to seeing the teams at Rainier BaseCamp this afternoon. Congratulations to today's Summit Climb teams!

Mt. Rainier: Paradise Glacier Seminar Fun with Crevasse Rescue

Posted by: ,

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 8,500'

Facebook Logo
The Paradise Glacier Seminar is in full effect with loads of exciting training taking place. We have a beautiful camp at 8,500 feet on the Cowlitz Glacier surrounded by steep walls and breathtaking crevasses. Our team is all in great spirits and thriving in what has been described as a high excitement summer camp for aspiring mountain climbers. The weather is not as sunny as the two previous days but at least some of the forest fire smoke has subsided opening up some great views. We are all getting psyched for our move to Camp Muir tomorrow. Team Paradise sends their best to family and friends. RMI Guide Adam Knoff

Bottle neck of climbers above the DC caused a major hours long delay. Unfortunately temps were warming up quickly and there was still a lot of mountain to climb.

Posted by: JC on 7/29/2013 at 6:23 pm

Too bad.  Would like to know what prevented the team from summiting.
