Despite route conditions, RMI Guides Pete Van Deventer, Jess Wedel and their climbing team reached the top of the cleaver this morning. They enjoyed the chance to see the route and route conditions we are currently facing first-hand. They made a stop at Ingraham Flats on their descent to practice crevasse rescue and expand their skills as mountaineers.
They are currently enjoying their descent and will be back at Basecamp soon!

*Ashford boy fulfills dream of climbing with RMI thanks to birthday gift from wife*
Woohoo! Despite unfortunate route conditions preventing a summit, our guides provided an incredible experience in mountaineering and we had an unforgettable adventure! The mountain gives what it gives, and we were gifted with a beautiful sunrise atop the Cleaver and an extremely up-close view of a crevasse on the edge of the Flats!
Special shout-out to Jess and Margo, our primary small-team guides throughout the trip - thanks for your hard work and positive energy you brought to the team every minute. We appreciated your care and reassurance in times of need and also keeping us updated on whether or not we were “there yet.”
Going forward we will look fondly at our backyard mountain piercing the horizon and be filled with great joy at the memories created with our fellow climbers and excellent RMI Guides. Thanks for the safe journey, please be safe yourselves, and we’ll hope to (or even try to) cross paths again someday!
Keep kicking crev-asse, Women of the Mountains!
Most Sincerely, Dalton
