The Expeditions Skills Seminar - Kautz June 6 - 11 reached the summit of Mt. Rainier this morning via the Kautz Glacier route. After several days of training the team put their skills to the test ascending the Kautz Ice chute and Wapowety Cleaver. They reached Point Success at 8:50 am and crossed to Columbia Crest, the true summit of Mt. Rainier 14,410' arriving at 9:12 am. The team enjoyed a bit of time in the crater and then began their descent. They will return to camp for a well deserved rest and spend a final night on the mountain. Tomorrow they will continue their descent to Paradise, returning to Rainier BaseCamp to conclude their program.
Way to go team!

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!

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

The Expedition Skills Seminar - Kautz team had a successful week of Alpine Skills Training. Although poor weather kept the team from making a summit attempt, they made the best use of their time on the mountain learning snow ice anchors, crevasse rescue, ice climbing, fixed line travel, belaying and other technical skills needed for future expeditions like Denali or Aconcagua.
Another great climb, Sam!! Love reading some of the details — stay safe!
Gram & Gramp ❤️
