The Five Day Climb July 11 - 15 led by RMI Guides Brent Okita and Sam Hoffman reached the summit of Mt. Rainier today on a beautiful day. The team is currently on their descent. Their patience paid off as they waited yesterday for many RMI Guides to reestablish the route to the summit. The teams will return to Camp Muir to repack and rehydrate before continuning down the remaining 4.5 miles to Paradise later today.
Congratulations climbers and a HUGE thank you to all the guides working on the route over the last several days!

Shoutout to Sam and Roland for making this an incredible experience! The fact that you worked longer hours to ensure we had an alternative route to reach the summit is what made this entire trip! I have nothing but great things to say about you both! I hope to climb a different destination with you both one day in the future! Thank you again!

I won’t be on the DC route next week when I climb, but wanted to thank the guides for working hard to re-establish the route around what sounded like a gnarly crevasse collapse. Congrats to the climbers that reached the summit. Enjoy the Rainier Beer and cider.

The Four Day Climb June 24 - 27 reached the summit of Mt. Rainier today led by RMI Guides Brent Okita and Josh McDowell. The team enjoyed clear skies above Camp Muir during their climb while the lower elevations were covered with low clouds and precipitation. The climbers reached the crater rim around 7 am today and enjoyed some time on top before starting their descent. The climbers have returned to Camp Muir where they will pack gear and continue another 4.5 miles back to Paradise later this afternoon.
Congratulations to today's climbers!

The Expedition Skills Seminar - Emmons led by RMI Guide Dan May reached the Summit of Mt. Rainier at 11:32 am today! The team has spent the week training and perfecting their alpine skills, and today this hard work has paid off as they traversed the Emmons Glacier to reach the top. They will spend another night at Camp Schurman before descending.
Congratulations Team!

The Four Day Climb led by RMI Guides Casey Grom and Drew O’Brien reached Ingraham Flats on Mt. Rainier this morning. New snow from recent storms, avalanches, and route concerns kept the team from continuing up hill.
The team enjoyed a beautiful sunrise and started their descent from Camp Muir.

Nice work team!
