Mt. Rainier: Avalanche Conditions Keep Team from Summit

September 3, 2016

Posted by: Pete Van Deventer, Mike King

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 11,400'

The Mt. Rainier Summit Climb, led Pete Van Deventer and Mike King, is back at Camp Muir after turning on the upper mountain due to route and avalanche conditions. They encountered snow up to waist deep, providing poor footing on exposed slopes. The weather reported from Camp Muir is clear, calm, and cold. The teams will depart for Paradise soon.
