RMI Guides Seth Burns & Leif Bergstrom led their team of Mt. Baker - North Ridge climbers to the summit yesterday. They enjoyed a nice day on the mountain and returned to camp after their summit. They spent last night on the mountain and will be returning to the trailhead later today to conclude their program.
Nice work team!
I just want to take this time to thanks the guides and to share my appreciation for all participants that contributed to such a lovely experience throughout the journey to the top of baker and back at camp. It was such a pleasant experience and wish everyone all the best on their adventures to come!
regards,
Tony C Leon
Keep climbing!

RMI Guide Seth Burns and team checked in from the summit of Mt. Shuksan this morning. It looks like they had a beautiful blue bird sky and excellent conditions for their climb of Fisher Chimneys. They will descend back to camp and continue to the trail head later today to complete their adventure.
Nice work team!

Psalm 121 -A Song of Ascents-
“I will lift up my eyes to the hills from whence comes my help. My help comes from the Lord . Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved. “
The team remains in our thoughts and prayers. We know you are looking at the top of the “high one”.
Waiting patiently as you have in the cold and snow will make your ascent even more glorious.
Everyone is excited about your return!
“Success is the sum of small efforts day in and day out” Robert Collier

“In a sense everything that is exists to climb. All evolution is a climbing towards a higher form.
Climbing for life as it reaches towards the consciousness, towards the spirit. We have always
honored the high places because we sense them to be the homes of gods. In the mountains there
is the promise of ..... something unexplainable. A higher place of awareness, a spirit that soars.
So we climb… and in climbing there is more than a metaphor; there is a means of discovery.”

Thinking of you Blake….. I’m so excited for you !!!
Love, Mom

Barafu. High Camp, 15,200 ft, poised for the summit push. We are into some nice weather now. It was calm and clear and not all that cold this morning at Karanga Camp. After another of chef Tosha’s wonderful mountain breakfasts, we set out for high camp. Naiman led the way today, taking us up broad and easy terrain for the first hour or so. Above 14,000 ft the trail got a little more rocky and narrow in places but it wasn’t giving our seasoned team any real trouble. We took a couple of long and lazy rest breaks today so that our staff of porters and camp builders could get out ahead. Even so, we were walking into Barafu by 11 AM. This gave plenty of time for resting and rehydrating and strategizing for tonight’s climb.
It’ll be an early dinner and then early to bed for this team. We hope to launch for the summit at midnight. All systems are go.
Best Regards,
RMI Guide Dave Hahn & Team
