Mt. Rainier: Five Day Climb Teams Reach the Summit led by Delaney and Hedreen

The Five Day Climb July 24 - 28 led by RMI Guides Jack Delaney and George Hedreen reached the summit of Mt. Rainier today.  Jack reported a very cold and windy climb.  The clear skies and sunshine were appreciated by the group and they enjoyed some time inside the summit crater before starting their descent. The teams will return to Camp Muir for their second night on the mountain and enjoy a well deserved rest and full night's sleep after their alpine start this morning.  The team will conclude their program tomorrow, descending the remaining 4,500' to Paradise and ending with a short celebration at Rainier BaseCamp.

Congratulations to today's climbers!

Mt. Baker: Easton Glacier July 22nd Summit!

With a forecast of thunderstorms and heavy rain by afternoon, we set alarms for a 12am start. Under a starry sky and with perfect climbing conditions we made great time!

The weather started to come in just as we summited around 7am, but we snapped a few photos just as the clouds closed in.

Heavy rain on the tents last night was the perfect white noise for some solid rest. 

RMI Guide Joe Hoch & Team!
