Chair lift? Now that’s the way to “climb” a mountain! Like to see the dismount from said lift with pack. Does my heart good to see Lucy’s hair still perfect after 4 days in Russia and Sasha in her colorful gear. Fully expect Laura to be in green. Mark has just tapped the potential for humor for this group. He has no idea. Love to you all

Our team completed a Four-Day climb to the summit of Mt. Rainier via the classic Disappointment Cleaver route. Jack Delaney and Bryan Mazaika reported clear skies above the clouds and a well-established route that made for a smooth ascent.
Climbing Mt. Rainier is more than just a summit—it is reminder of the power of preparation, the beauty of the Cascades, and the camaraderie that comes from shared challenge.
Congratulations to today’s Team!
Congratulations to the team! Great job Abbie! I’m remembering you at age 2, “I do it myself”, ever fearless!

Today was a double activity day for some. Three of us started the day with a morning kayak tour in Lago Grey. Despite the winds up high the conditions on the lake were great. We were able to kayak up and get a look at the Grey Glacier from the water. We’ve now seen the glacier from above on the trail, from the surface during yesterday’s glacier walk and from the water!
We all took the walk from Refugio Grey to Refugio Paine Grande. The rain chased us but didn’t catch us. It was very windy up high but otherwise a dry and nice walk. This was one of the shorter days and a good way to get back into the groove after the long day over the pass and the recovery day. After arriving at Paine Grande a variety of treats were enjoyed at the bar while looking out over the lake.

Thanks for posting useful information about the island peak climbing. I read your complete blog and got i lot of information for my future trek plans. I really got to know about some interesting facts which I was not aware of. I have also got some useful insights from ExpedReview as well.
Thanks for posting wonderful content. Keep posting such types of blogs.

Technically, today was a rest day…
but we still got up early and went hiking. It would have been hard not to get out of bed with a stunning sunrise lighting up Kwangde - the giant and jagged peak across the valley to our west. We hiked up a steep hill (everything out of Namche is steep) to Syangboche and then traversed through yak pastures until we reached a tea house at 12,400 ft for our first views of Ama Dablam and Lhotse. There were some clouds playing through the area that prevented our seeing Everest. We sat outside, drank tea, and watched. At one point we could see Everest’s South Summit, but the true summit never quite cleared for us. We packed up and headed back down into Namche to rest and browse through the many shops for the afternoon.
Tomorrow we’ll push a little higher in our move to Thame.
Best Regards
Dave

The Mt. Rainier Four Day Climb led by RMI Guides Casey Grom and Nikki Champion stood on top of Mt. Rainier this morning! The teams reported clear skies and light winds on the summit. They are currently on their descent to Camp Muir, where they will pack-up and refuel. We look forward to seeing them at Rainier BaseCamp later this afternoon.
Way to go, climbers!
Way to go, Casey, Nikki, and team! Congrats!
