Mt. Rainier: Van Deventer & Team Reach the Summit!

August 25, 2018

Posted by: Pete Van Deventer, Dustin Wittmier, Ross Lindell

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 14,410'

Around 7:20 AM PT the Four Day Summit Climb August 22 - 25 led by RMI Guide Pete Van Deventer rolled into the crater of Mt. Rainier. Pete reported a light breeze with some high clouds above and a low marine layer near Paradise. There was a beautiful sunrise this morning as they were making their ascent and the temperature was not too cold. The team will enjoy some time in the summit crater before starting their descent. Once back to Camp Muir they will pack up and continue down to Paradise. A celebration at Rainier BaseCamp this afternoon will conclude their program. Congratulations to today's Summit Climb team!
