The Expedition Skills Seminar - Paradise August 14 - 19 led by RMI Guides Joe Crawford and Hannah Billings will conclude their program today.  After several days of training and a wet start the team enjoyed four days of good weather and nice training conditions as they gradually ascended the mountain. Yesterday, they bumped up to Camp Muir for their launch point of their summit attempt. Unfortunately the high winds and deteriorating weather on the upper mountain this morning forced them to turn back. The team is safely back at Camp Muir. After a quick break they will continue the remaining 4.5 miles to Paradise. They will celebrate their adventure this afternoon at Rainier BaseCamp.
