RMI Guide Dave Hahn and the Mount Rainier summit climb team reached the summit in clear, calm and chilly conditions. The team spent some time on top marveling in the views and then began their descent at 9:25 a.m. After a successful summit yesterday, the Five-Day Muir Summit Climb team, led by Jake Beren, is on their way down from Camp Muir. We look forward to congratulating the teams in Ashford this afternoon!

Mt. Kilimanjaro: Team Returns to Arusha, Ready to Fly Home

Hi this is Seth along with the group. We are on the way to the airport after a great last day on Safari. We awoke this morning in Kikoti Camp and after a great breakfast we hit the road. We traversed back through Tarangire National Park and were lucky to catch a few more glimpses of a pride of lions. After that we made our way back to Arusha, did some shopping and came back to the Dik Dik Hotel. Everyone has had a great trip but after two weeks away, I think most everyone is excited to return home. As for me I am sticking around for another trip and I am really looking forward to heading back up on the mountain. I'll be checking in again soon! RMI Guide Seth Waterfall

Seth. Thanks for doing such a great job posting.  All of us back in the states felt like we were there. I’m am hopeful to give it try with my kids sometime soon.  I hope the next climb is a success as well.

Elevation: 14,410'

RMI Guides Garrett Stevens and Casey Grom led their teams of Four Day Summit Climbers to the summit of Mt. Rainier today. Garrett reported a thin cloud cap starting to form but a pretty nice day overall. Winds were very low on the lower portions of the mountain but had increased near the summit. The teams will spend a bit of time in the crater and then descend back to Camp Muir. After a short break the teams will continue down to Paradise and conclude their program with a short celebration at Rainier BaseCamp. Congratulations to today's Summit Climb teams!

Mt. Shuksan: The Seminar Team Wraps up the Week

Posted by:

Well, we're all safely out of the mountains after a great week of climbing and training on Mount Shuksan's Sulphide glacier. Our climbing team gained proficiency moving in diverse terrain in the mountains, including crevassed glaciers, steep snow and ice, and 4th & 5th class rock. We also practiced lots of knots and hitches and crevasse rescue systems. We packed a lot into the past week, and the weather was perfect throughout. Our team was strong and cohesive and we all reached the summit Mount Shuksan in good style. It was a pleasure to climb with everyone. Nice work team! RMI Guide Mike Walter

Mambo poa... We are full on safari pros now. We left the Plantation Lodge at a relaxed pace this morning and after a couple of quick shopping missions we made it into Tarangire National Park. This is the 'Garden of the Elephants' and true to its name we have already seen about 50 of them before lunch. We are going to make our way through the rest of the park this afternoon on our way to Kikoti Camp. I'll check in again tomorrow. RMI Guide Seth Waterfall

Mt. Shuksan: Seminar Team Reaches Summit

Elevation: 9,127'

Another excellent day on Mount Shuksan in the North Cascades...this time we woke up before dawn and cramponed up the Sulphide Glacier to the base of the summit pyramid, where we ditched the crampons and ice axes and climbed 4th and 5th class rock for 800 vertical feet to the summit! Our entire team reached the summit in good style. The weather was perfect so we hung out on the summit for over an hour before descending. We were back in camp around 2 p.m. for a round trip of a little over eight hours. The training over the past week really paid off and nobody struggled with the technical terrain at all. Congrats team! RMI Guide Mike Walter

Mt. Shuksan: The Seminar Team Perfects Mountaineering Skills

8/26/14 8:30 pm PST We had another great day of training today here on Shuksan's Sulphide Glacier. We spent the bulk of the day ice climbing in a crevasse and practicing crevasse rescue with mechanical advantage systems. There was barely a cloud in the sky all day, and the forecast looks similar for tomorrow. That's good news for us, as we're planning to make our summit attempt tomorrow. We'll let you know how it goes! RMI Guide Mike Walter

Hi this is Seth. We are spending the day in the vast Ngorongoro Crater. The animal viewing here is excellent and we've already spotted our first lion of the trip. Everyone's legs are almost completely recovered from summit day but its still nice to relax in the vehicles. We'll be staying in our same hotel tonight before making the switch to Kikoti Camp tomorrow. That's it for now. RMI Guide Seth Waterfall
