Mt. Rainier: August 11th Summit!
The Four Day Summit Climb and the Five Day Summit Climb reached the summit of Mt. Rainier this morning. The guides reported moderate winds and cloudy conditions. The teams were departing the summit around 7:30 a.m. and are returning to Camp Muir to refuel before continuing downhill to Paradise. We’ll see them back in Ashford this afternoon.
Congratulations to today's teams!

Congrats, Jimmy! Not a bad day’s work for you. Not only did you bag the peak, but you snatched first place in the tourney from me as well. See you when you’re back.
