September 21-23 Rainier climb

Fall is upon us, and with it a big wet low pressure system. Lead guide Stuart Robertson called to check in from a snowy and blustery Camp Muir. The team successfully climbed to Muir on Saturday in decent weather, and enjoyed a hearty burrito dinner in the Weatherport. The group did not move up to Ingraham Flats due to white-out conditions, and unfortunately were not able to make a summit attempt due to the on-going storm. The team is all safe and doing well, and will be heading back down to Paradise after packing up today.
