Elevation: 14,410'
The Four Day Climb June 24 - 27 reached the summit of Mt. Rainier today led by RMI Guides Brent Okita and Josh McDowell. The team enjoyed clear skies above Camp Muir during their climb while the lower elevations were covered with low clouds and precipitation. The climbers reached the crater rim around 7 am today and enjoyed some time on top before starting their descent. The climbers have returned to Camp Muir where they will pack gear and continue another 4.5 miles back to Paradise later this afternoon.
Congratulations to today's climbers!

Thank you Joe, Felipe, Stella, and Calvin, for the amazing experience on Rainier. The mountain was beautiful, the guides, were inspiring, and the group was full of wonderful people. The experience with rope teams and glacier travel was cool, and watching the guides and route setters make decisions on weather and carve out routes was eye opening. Hope to see everyone in the mountains again.
