Mt. Rainier: Parrinello & Team Turn at 13,500 on Emmons Route

August 5, 2021

Posted by: Avery Parrinello, Kiira Antenucci, Erika Birkeland, David Shuer

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 13,500'

The Emmons Seminar August 1 - 6, 2021 made their summit attempt today after several days of training and climbing on the mountain. Leaving Camp Schurman the team climbed to 13,500' before deciding to turn back due to difficult route conditions and fatigue. The team returned to Camp Schurman this afternoon and will spend their final night on the mountain. Tomorrow they will continue their descent to the trailhead near White River Camp Ground and make the return drive to Ashford.

We hope you enjoyed your week of training and climbing on Mt. Rainier!
