The June 8-10 Rainier D.C. climb was able to summit successfully yesterday, despite somewhat blustery conditions on the upper mountain. Special shout out to guide Nick Mullan who summited on his birthday. Happy Birthday Nick!
The 10-day Mountaineering course checked in briefly to say all is well. The group was camped at around 8,600' last night and today is making their way up "The Turtle"- a steep snowfield on the way to high camp around 10,000'.
