Kilimanjaro: Tucker & Team Reach First Camp at 10,000’

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Kilimanjaro

Elevation: 10,000'

Greetings from 10,000' Machame Camp on Kilimanjaro! We had a nice departure from the our lodge this morning. We left after a good nights rest and great breakfast. After checking in at the Kilimanjaro National Park Gate, we all put on our rain gear and worked our way up to camp. It was not the nicest of days on the trail with hard rain for the first half and light rain on the second half. We did the best we could but all of the team arrived at Machame Camp pretty wet. Lucky for us, amp was all set up so a quick change, snacks, hot drinks and dinner has us all in good shape. It may be wet out but it hasn't damped or spirits. RMI Guide Mark Tucker

Mt. Elbrus: Gorum and Team Summit!

Posted by:

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Elbrus Southside

Elevation: 18,510'

We made it to the top of Europe this morning! The weather forecast turned out to be horribly wrong, but in our favor. What was supposed to be a pretty marginal day turned into one of the best weather days we’ve seen this whole trip. After we hit the top of Mt. Elbrus, we boogied back down to camp, packed up our things, and moved back down into town. We’ll have our celebration dinner down here tonight, after some well earned showers. Everyone sends their best! RMI Guide JM Gorum

Mt. Shuksan - Fisher Chimneys: Blais & Team Descend Through New Snow

Posted by:

Categories: Expedition Dispatches North Cascades

We got back into cell service late last night after an exciting day of climbing on Mount Shuksan yesterday. New snow in the Fisher Chimneys made it prudent to wear our crampons all the way down to the talus field below the Chimneys. Our team had a great time descending this tough terrain and came away from the trip with an excellent experience. Fun climbing in this wild September weather! Thanks for the inspiring attitudes everyone. RMI Guide Zeb Blais @zebblais

Vinson Massif:  Hahn & Team Move to High Camp

Posted by:

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Vinson Massif

Elevation: 12,150'

A great day for climbing, at last. We were out of the tents just after the sun broke the big freeze at Low Camp. Conditions looked much better today, so we ate breakfast, tore down the tents and hit the trail. Actually, we broke the trail, which wasn't too big a deal. The fixed ropes were under about two or three inches of hard wind blown snow. It was a long time on a steep angle but most of the way, the surface was perfect for our crampons. We worried that the wind might come up as we topped the ridge, but we cleared that area fast and escaped the big chill. Five and a half hours of hard work brought us in to beautiful "High Camp" at 7 PM. It was perfectly calm and sunny at 12,150 ft and we set to work building a comfortable and secure camp. We like this one to be secure since we are right on the edge of a dramatic and profound drop-off. One doesn't have to go but 75 feet to be staring straight down the 3000 ft to low camp. Looking out to the west is a shining sea of ice and low cloud stretching seemingly forever. We ate dinner and prepped our packs for tomorrow. It just might be our summit day. Best Regards RMI Guides Dave Hahn

Kilimanjaro: Hahn & Team Finish Their Safari at Tarangire National Park

Posted by:

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Kilimanjaro

Facebook Logo
After a peaceful night at the Kikoti Lodge just East of the Tarangire National Park boundary, we had breakfast and ducked back into the park. As experienced safari aficionados, we no longer stopped the vehicles for common zebras and wildebeest. But we were happy to pull over to watch a monitor lizard cross the road. And seeing a lion guarding his fresh kill got our attention. The king of the savannah also got the attention of about twenty elephants on their way to the water. They trumpeted and snorted when they sensed his presence and -giving him some space, took a detour to reach the water. We saw a few thousand other animals and birds, baobab trees and acacias on our way back out to the main park exit. Then it was Tanzanian highway driving with a few stops for tourism and sightseeing on the way back to Arusha and the Dik Dik Hotel. All that remains now is a dinner together and a few shuttles to the airport over the next 24 hours as we split up and begin to circle the globe toward home. It has been a chock full couple of weeks in Africa. Thank you for keeping track of our team! Best Regards, RMI Guide Dave Hahn

Oups, this cool elephant picture was taken by Seth Waterfall, but that’s OK, your great sense of capturing moment in this wilderness is well sufficient to let our imagination understanding the beauty of this surrounding nature. With all my respect and admiration. Chrystel, the little dreamer !

Mt. McKinley: Upper West Rib Team takes Weather Day at 14,000’

Posted by: ,

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mt. McKinley

Elevation: 14,000'

June 11, 2014 10:53pm PT We awoke this morning to clear skies and the sound of howling wind thrashing the mountain above us. It was a cold day at 14 camp despite the winds easing a bit in the afternoon. We finished building our snow walls and made some snow statues- a mailbox and planter among them. At 3:00 pm the winds had let up enough that we took a walk to the Edge of the World, a vista point on the 14k bench. The forecast is looking better and we are hopeful that we can get a cache up on the Rib tomorrow. Thanks for following along with us. RMI Guides Eric, Geoff and The UWR Team

Dr. Bruce Freedman, Love the beard. You guys look great. What a view you have. Stay warm and post some more pics… David

Good work gentlemen!

John, your fantasy baseball team is doing phenominal, the first goal of the world cup was an own-goal, and I left a basball game in the middle of the 14th inning only to hear the fireworks of a walk-off homer in the parking lot. Stay safe-ish, take lots of photos, and enjoy your time on the mountian.

Mt. Rainier: Grom, O’Brien Summit With Five Day Climb Crew

Posted by: , , , , ,

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 14,410'

Facebook Logo

The Five Day Climb August 30 - 3 September led by RMI Guides Casey Grom and Drew O'Brien reached the summit of Mt. Rainier this morning.  The team first checked in at 7:30 am from 13,300' on their ascent.  They reported good climbing and clear skies.  A little after 10am they let us know they had reached the summit, enjoyed some time in the crater and now were starting their descent from the crater rim.  The teams will return to Camp Muir in a few hours and get to rest, relax and enjoy some time on the mountain. Tonight they will spend their second night at Camp Muir, but they will get to sleep until a reasonable hour, not an alpine start.  They will descend the remaining 4,500' to Paradise tomorrow and end their program with a small celebration.

Congratulations to today's climbers!

Mexico’s Volcanoes: King, Coppolillo & Team Arrive in Mexico City

Posted by: ,

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mexico

Elevation: 7,300'

Our Team arrived in Mexico City over the last two days. We met and enjoyed a quick dinner last night after a nice meet & greet. This morning we’ll head for an acclimatization hike on the extinct volcanic remnants of La Malinche. It’s a long day to the top and electric storms sometimes thwart our efforts. Regardless of our high point it’s a nice hike to stretch the legs after a long flight and wake the lungs up in preparation for the high altitudes on Ixta & Orizaba. We’ll stay in some small cabins to sleep around 10,000’ for the night and check in once we get back into cell coverage tomorrow morning. Until then, we’ll enjoy the rolling corn planted countryside and dense pine trees surrounding our hike and cabins. Thanks for checking in.
