After a hot and hazy day yesterday, two four-day climbs led by Dave Hahn and Tom Skoog reached the summit of Mt. Rainier this morning under beautiful skies and improved air quality. The teams reported good route conditions on the DC and winds of 15-20 mph. They began their descent from the crater rim at 7:00 a.m.
After a short break at Camp Muir, the climbers will continue down to Paradise. To conclude their journey, we'll welcome them back to Ashford this afternoon.
Great job, climbers!

The Four Day Climb June 14 - 17 led by RMI Guides Joe Hoch and Jess Wedel were turned around by high winds at 10,300'. The telemetry at Camp Muir is showing wind gusts up to 48 mph. The teams returned to Camp Muir and enjoyed a bit of rest and perhaps a nice sunrise. They plan to descend from Camp Muir around 9:30 am. We look forward to seeing them at Rainier BaseCamp this afternoon.


So proud of both of you and your team! Amazing views. I hope you had an adventure of a lifetime! We look forward to seeing you soon and to seeing all the photos and hearing all about the adventure. We love you both so much.
