McKinley Expeditions, over 70,000 climbers on Mount Rainier and some of America's first ventures into the far reaches of the Himalaya.

*Rainier Mountaineering, Inc. operates within Mount Rainier National Park under a contract with the National Park Service, United States Department of the Interior. RMI is also an authorized concessionaire of Denali National Park & Preserve, Alaska, to conduct guided ascents of Mount McKinley.
