Mt. Rainier: Hoch & Four Day Climb Team Reach Summit

The Four Day Climb June 23 - 26 led by RMI Guide Joe Hoch, reached the summit of Mt. Rainier a little before 7 am today.  Joe reported a light cloud cap on the summit, light to moderate winds from the west and cloud deck below near 9,000'.  Despite a bad weather forecast they were greeted with a perfect morning! The team enjoyed a bit of time in the crater before starting their descent from the crater rim around 7:45 am.  The team is now en route to Camp Muir where they will make a quick stop to rehydrate, refuel and repack before continuing down to Paradise later today.

Nice work team!
