The Four-Day Climb with Dominic Cifelli & Sam Marjerison turned around at High Break (13,600’) today due to high winds and heavy clouds forming on the upper mountain during their ascent. The team is en route back to Camp Muir and should return to Basecamp early this afternoon.
Congratulations to the team on a strong climb!

RMI Guides Dustin Wittmier and Dominic Cifelli led their Four Day teams May 15 - 18, on an early alpine start from Camp Muir this morning.

Mt. Baker Summit & Ski Team Update:
The team spent last two days exploring the upper slopes of Mt. Baker, enjoying some great turns along the way. Unfortunately, weather conditions prevented them from climbing above 7,400 feet on their summit attempt today.
They’re now back at camp and will ski out tomorrow.
This team was led by RMI Guides Sam Marjerison and Bailey Servais

Hello! The team just got back to camp after a sunset climb on the Easton Glacier. It was a hazy but beautiful climb. We'll get some well earned rest and walk back to the trailhead in the morning.

The six day Expedition Skills Seminar - Paradise August 15 - 20 led by RMI Guide Dustin Wittmier has enjoyed several days of climbing and training on the mountain. From glacier travel to camp life and crevasse rescue training the team put all of their skills into play and launched a summit attempt from Camp Muir early this morning. The team reached the summit of Mt. Rainier just before 7 am and spent a bit of time on top. They are now descending to Camp Muir and will pack up and return to Paradise later today.
Nice work team!

RMI Guide Tatum Whatford and the Mt. Baker Leave No Trace (LNT) team were on the summit of Mt. Baker at 6:41 am today. The team climbed via the Coleman Demming Route.
This program equips participants with the skills and knowledge needed to achieve an LNT Level 2 Instructor certification, and empowers them to effectively teach and certify individuals in Leave No Trace Level 1 Instructor courses and Awareness Workshops. The terrain covered on Mt. Baker serves as an ideal classroom, offering diverse environments such as old-growth forests, heather meadows, and immense glaciers, allowing us to focus specifically on LNT techniques relevant to alpine environments.
Reaching the summit of Mt. Baker is a great way to end the week! Congrats Team!
Way to go Benjamin! We are so happy for you and proud of you!
