Mt. Rainier: Teams on the Summit!

The Four Day Summit Climb led by RMI Guide Mike Haugen along with the Expedition Skills Seminar - Paradise led by Geoff Schellens reached the summit of Mt. Rainier early this morning. As of 7 am both teams were on their descent and approaching the top of Disappointment Cleaver en route back to Camp Muir. Conditions are beautiful this morning with warm temperatures and light winds reported from Camp Muir (10,080'). Congratulations to today's climbing teams!

Congratulations team. I was so intent on getting my post climb comma sleep I did not get to say a proper good by to you all. It was a pleasure climbing with all of you. Truly an inspiring group of folks to climb with. There was never a doubt that this entire team was going to make it “up top”. Thank you all for your inspiration. Thank you Scott for the post climb refreshment drink. Thank you Mike, Josh, and my rope team leader JM for taking such great care of us.
PS: I did wake up from my 10 hour comma sleep and thought, yes, I want to do this again!
