8-day Emmons course checks in

The June 12-19th Rainier 8-day course checked in to let us know all is well and folks are doing great. The team has been experiencing a bit of the typical "Juneuary" conditions with some snow and cloudy weather, but it looks to improve in the next couple days. Yesterday the team practiced crevasse rescue, and today will be moving up to high camp at Camp Schurman. In addition, two more Alpine Ascents guides are joining the group today, in anticipation of a summit attempt. Best of luck to the team!
