Associate Guide
With RMI
Miles grew up in Salt Lake City, Utah where he spent his younger years exploring the outdoors through skiing, backpacking, and birding with his parents. In high school, he began climbing competitively before departing the competition scene and focusing more on outdoor bouldering and rope climbing. He attended the University of Utah studying biology and ecology where he was introduced to canyoneering, white water sports, ice climbing, and backcountry skiing. In his free time, Miles loves playing sports, honing in his Geoguessr skills, and spending time with those he loves.

Mountaineering
The Five Day Rainier Climb offers the classic Mount Rainier experience with added time, margin, and flexibility built into the schedule, allowing teams to move deliberately, adapt to conditions, and fully engage with the mountain rather than rushing to meet a narrow summit window. That extra day provides the flexibility to choose the best timing for summit day (especially valuable when weather is less predictable) making it ideal for first-time Rainier climbers and anyone seeking a deeper immersion in one of North America's most iconic glaciated peaks.
The climb begins with a half day orientation at BaseCamp, then a full day of mountaineering school on the mountain, then spends two nights at Camp Muir in the private hut RMI uses — the only guide service with its own shelter there, giving climbers time to acclimatize, refine movement skills, and recover between efforts. Throughout, you climb in small rope teams at a 2:1 climber-to-guide ratio for closer instruction and more individual attention. Before and after the climb, your team is based at Rainier BaseCamp in Ashford, home to the BaseCamp Bar & Grill, Whittaker Mountaineering, and Whittaker's Bunkhouse.
