The Emmons climbers made it back safely to Seattle this afternoon. After guides went up to scout the route, they found unfavorable late season snow conditions on the route above Camp Schurman. Rather than making a summit attempt, the team had a fun time yesterday with crevasse rescue practice, learning how to prussik out of a crevasse, and enjoying the sunshine. The group descended from Camp Schurman today and back to the trailhead, and then returned to the office this afternoon.
