Thank you to our team leads Ben, Nevin and Grayson for getting us safely up and down. And for the stupid jokes, well, thanks for trying.

I know this sounds crazy, but my sister said she is going on a solo hike up Mount Rainier today. She used to be a hiker, but she was diagnosed with bi-polar. Is it possible to go on a hike today? She said she signed up for a 4 day hike starting today. I can’t reach her since she said she was going. Do you have to be with a guide? I am worried she will drive up there and attempt a hike without proper equipment. We had to rescue her already when she set out to hike in the woods with no supplies. Is there any other hikes going up today? Thanks if anyone can help.
