Aconcagua: Beren & Team Ready to Move to Camp 1

Today we enjoyed the first break in the wind we've seen up here and made a very productive carry to Camp 1. This not only put some much needed supplies higher on the mountain, but gave us a chance to taste our thinnest air so far and work on our high altitude techniques for later on. Tomorrow we will move up to Camp 1 if weather permits and be one step closer to higher exploration. Tonight after our climbing was complete, we had a great (hopefully) last meal for a while here at BC. It really fueled us for a big day tomorrow, but not nearly as much as reading all the blog responses from everyone back home. Thanks. RMI Guide Jake Beren PS. Happy Birthday to il Padrino.

Keep going, Josh!  I wore a bow tie the last two days at work.  I am assuming you’re doing the same up there.

Kilimanjaro: Tucker & Team Safely Back to 10,000’ Camp

Mark Tucker checking in from Tanzania here at our last camp on this trip of Kilimanjaro. We are all down safe and sound; good spirits and good health. What a day! Beautiful summit, chilly and windy. Hopefully you got that message from the top. We pushed our way down to 10,000', so a 9,000' descent. Everybody's feeling it. Ready to go to sleep. A great meal. Looking forward to getting up pretty early and getting out of here. Have a nice celebration and take care of our fabulous local staff that has been providing us with this great service. I'd love to think we could do it without them but we'd be here for a couple of months. Everybody back home, all your friends and family are in great shape. Everybody did a fantastic job of doing what they could on the mountain. We'll check in after a good night's rest. RMI Guide Mark Tucker

Mt. McKinley: Beren & Team Rest at 14K Camp

Happy Father's Day to all the Dads in the lowlands! After our day of training, we were raring to go carry up the fixed lines. Packed up, alarms set but when we woke the wind was blowing and the snow was swirling. Dragging our feet provided little clarity, with the basin clearing out just enough to show high winds on the West Buttress. Tough to establish a trend, but we decided to wait another day here at 14 Camp. It ended up being a good call as the clouds regained control of camp and it has snowed heavily since. Armed with an optimistic forecast, we plan to carry tomorrow and get in position for a move as soon as we can. Wish us luck down there and enjoy the day celebrating all the Fathers.

Mt. Everest Expedition: Sherpa Team Moving Supplies on Upper Mountain

Hey Dave Hahn calling from Mount Everest. We're at Base Camp. Our Sherpa team, Lam Babu and the guys are rested at Camp 2 today. They hope that they are going to put in a carry of gear and supplies up the South Col tomorrow. Early tomorrow they will try to reach 8,000 meters. The climbing team, we're still taking it easy at Base Camp trying to keep our activity level up hiking, and visiting with friends and playing games. The weather forecast is still for a little bit higher winds to come in the next couple of days. There is not any effort at the moment between the climbing teams, the various climbing teams around us, to prioritize between going to the summit. That will come after those winds spike up and then we hope those higher winds leave the mountain and give us some better conditions. So it will probably all going to be happening after the middle of the month. A little bit of waiting time at Base Camp but not bad for us. Bye for now. RMI Guide Dave Hahn

Mt. McKinley: Haugen’s Team Moves to 9,600’ Camp

Sunday, June 16th, 2013 Happy Father's Day to all of our dads from Summit Team 6! We bit off another chunk of the mountain this morning ascending to 9,600 feet. Only 10,600 feet to go! We arrived at our new camp around mid morning. Our team is quickly becoming McKinley camp experts, so it did not take us very long to dig in camp. We had some extra daylight (oh yeah, it is always daylight), so we decided to dig a monster posh house. A posh house is our version of a cook tent. It is like a snow cave where the cooking and seating area is dug into the snow below ground level. The roof is a big top-like tent that is held up by a pole that goes from the apex to the floor of the snow pit. Now we have room for company. The weather forecast looks stellar so we should be able to move up to 11k Camp tomorrow. RMI Guide Mike Haugen and Summit Team 6 P.S. Lance says thank you to his wife and girls for the Father's Day card!

It sounds like things are going so well! Steve, we are thinking of you constantly.  Tania went home today and we miss her, but we had fun this weekend talking about how WE are not on a glacier, but enjoying summer in the mountains.  Just so you know, Tania did awesome this weekend.

Everest Base Camp Trek: Casey Grom & Team Trek into Lobuche

Hello everybody, this is Casey Grom checking in from the second RMI Everest Base Camp Trek and Island Peak climb. Just wanna let you know that everyone's doing well today, getting better and feeling better seems like every step, with whatever little tummy issues we were having. Today we left Pheriche in perfect weather and hiked beneath Taboche and Cholatse, two famous and iconic climbs here in the Khumbu. We hiked about four hours today at get up to Lobuche, so we made a big turn and we are paralleling the Khumbu Glacier, which is only about 300 yards from where we are camped. We are currently relaxing at the Eco Lodge, which is probably the nicest tea house, it seems like, up valley here. Everyone's doing well and we are just now sitting down for dinner and looking forward to moving up closer to Base Camp tomorrow. Alright. That's it for today. We'll look forward to checking in tomorrow with everybody. Take care, bye bye. RMI Guide Casey Grom

Mountaineering Training | Dedicate your effort

If you’ve been following the blog posts, you’ve been doing some rigorous training - and it will pay off. I’m always looking for a little extra motivation or meaning in my routines and I’m often thinking about how to maintain the momentum that will carry me up the hill! As humans, we dedicate art, buildings, books and many other things. Often to loved ones, sometimes to causes. We can dedicate any effort. A mountain climb for example - to someone or something we care for. It can even be anonymous. Perhaps the person isn’t with us anymore, a team you once were part of, it could be your next-door neighbor! Personally, I’ll do it when I’m taking on something that will test my limits, or something that I’ve not had success with in the past. This process feels very tangible, “I’m grateful for what you did for me, I’m going to do this thing for you”. And it goes both ways. Someone once told me they found the stamina to go to the top of a mountain as a token of gratitude for the encouragement I gave them ... I’ll never forget that. When I start dedicating that next mile, thousand feet, workout or climb to someone who has helped me, all of a sudden I’m no longer going solo. I have a supporter, a team or my family behind me. It improves the quality of what I’m doing. Credit for this idea to Seth Godin, an inspirational out-of-the-box thinker whom I respect. - John Colver John Colver is a longtime climber, former mountain guide, and certified personal trainer with the American Council of Exercise.

Denali Expedition: Hahn & Team Split Up, Some Return to Talkeetna

Wednesday, July 5, 2023 - 11:59 pm PT

Difficult day today, waiting for the weather to clear, then scrambling like crazy in the evening to fly and finally an unintentional split of the team. As some made it in to town and some remained on the mountain for the night.
