Second 3-day Rainier Climb Summits

May 18-20 climbers leaving the Paradise parking lot today at the start of the climb, with the Alpine Ascents van in the foreground.

Just after the team hiked out of view, the upper mountain was revealed momentarily.

The May 16-18 climb saw another successful summit bid, led by Michael Horst, Lhakpa Gelu Sherpa, Peter Moore, and Sam Hennessy. Congratulations climbers! Above are photos from the May 18-20 climbing group starting the hike up to Camp Muir.
