7:55 a.m. - JJ Justman and the Four Day Summit Climb reached the Mt. Rainier summit! The weather was better than he had expected when the team started their ascent this morning. They are spending a little time on top and will begin their descent shortly. Congratulations team! The Expedition Skills Seminar - Kautz led by Mike Haugen starts their four days on the mountain today. Good luck to them as they train and make a summit bid on the Kautz Route.

JJ, congratulations to you and your team. Perhaps the Cascades Winter is finally loosening her hold on the great one. Safe descent to all.

Mt. Rainier: June 16th Update

Elevation: 13,500'

RMI Guides Win Whittaker and Dan Windham led the Four Day Summit Climb teams to 13,500' this morning before deciding to turn around due to deteriorating weather conditions and increased winds. The teams checked in from Ingraham Flats around 7:30 a.m. on their descent as the rain continued to fall. They returned to Camp Muir to repack and hopefully dry out a bit. At 10:00 a.m. they began their descent from Camp Muir to Paradise. We look forward to seeing the groups at Rainier BaseCamp in a few hours.

Mt. Rainier: June 13th Update

Elevation: 12,700'

Our Four Day Summit Climb Teams led by JJ Justman and Billy Nugent turned today at the top of Disappointment Cleaver due to difficult conditions. The weather continues to be winter like on the upper mountain and is slowly transitioning into summer. High winds and firm conditions have thwarted attempts and guides are working hard to establish a safe route. We are expecting Mt. Rainier to release its winter hold on the upper mountain any day now.

Expedition Skills Seminar - Kautz: June 3 - 8 RECAP

Posted by:

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 9,200'

The Kautz Expedition Skills Seminar has wrapped things up. We had a fun time in what proved to be challenging weather and we're all happy to be warm and cozy now. Our trip started in clouds and light precip on day one but due to the fact we had a strong team we were able to set up a great camp for our first night. On the second day we had the best weather of the trip and were able to establish a higher camp at 'the castle'. Here we spent that afternoon digging in and building walls to protect our tents from a forecasted storm. The storm hit us overnight and we spent the next day in-the-mix as I like to say. Our walls did the trick though and we were in relative comfort as the storm raged all arounds us. Once the storm broke we hightailed it downhill through over a foot of new snow! After being pinned down for our climbing bid we were all a bit disappointed but we all agreed that it was a truly remarkable experience. It was all smiles as we said 'cheers' at our wrap up celebration back in Ashford. RMI Guide Seth Waterfall
