Mt. Rainier: July 1st Summit!

July 1, 2013

Posted by: Adam Knoff

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 14,410'

The Four Day Summit Climb led by RMI Guides Adam Knoff and Rob Montague reached the summit of Mt. Rainier this morning. The team spent about an hour on the summit before starting their descent back to Camp Muir. While on the summit, the team experienced a dense cloud cap, decreasing visibility to about 100ft. Summit winds were 20-30 mph and the temperature is warm. We look forward to seeing the teams at Rainier BaseCamp this afternoon. Congratulations to today's Summit Climb Teams!

Mexico Volcanoes: Team Summits Pico de Orizaba!

March 9, 2013

Posted by: Adam Knoff, JJ Justman

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mexico

Elevation: 18,701'

Hey there, this is Adam Knoff and JJ Justman- Team Mexico. We're happy to say that we had a successful climb of Pico de Orizaba today with beautiful weather. But we did it the old-fashioned way, we earned it. It was not an easy climb. Seven hours just climbing up the mountain and four hours coming down so eleven hours round trip of constant movement. We're all very relieved to be back at Senor Reyes' compound where we will be having dinner and relaxing for the evening before flying out tomorrow. All is well and we're happy to be coming home to our loved ones. This is Adam and JJ signing off. Adios. RMI Guide Adam Knoff
