Mt. Rainier: Five Day Climb Reaches 11,000’

The Five Day Summit Climb Team led by RMI Guides Brent Okita and Bryan Mazaika reached 11,000' on their summit attempt of Mt. Rainier this morning before poor weather and visibility forced the team to turn at Ingraham Flats. Brent reported cold and windy temperatures with some blowing snow. The team is back at Camp Muir and will start their descent at 9 am. They will be back at Rainier Basecamp in the early afternoon. Congratulations to today's Team!

Climbing mountains has never entered my mind in the past as a challenging activity in which I would want to participate.  However, since my son, Frank in this week’s climb, began his quest to reach the summit of each of the 50 states, I have begun to look more closely at the challenges faced by such intrepid climbers.  I have found this RMI web site has some of the best information on many of the desirable mountains.  I was disappointed, though, not to find any information about Britton Hill “:-)” included.

Seriously, I pray for the success of this week’s climb and the safety of all the members.  May God go with you all.

Mt. Rainier: Okita, Matthews & Team Turn Due to Weather and Conditions

The Mt. Rainier Summit Climb, led by Brent Okita and Jess Matthews, turned at 12,300' this morning. Weather conditions kept them from going higher as they ascended into a cloud cap and increasing winds. The teams are currently headed back to Camp Muir where they will pack up and continue their descent down the mountain.

Andy, Alan and Joe were great! They worked hard to ensure the safety our group and went above and beyond at every level to make this a memorable experience. Being my first time climbing a mountain I had very high expectations of the experience. Amazingly, the actual event wildly exceeded those expectations. This had a lot to do with the professionalism, experience and competency level of our guide team, led by Andy. They made this an exceptional learning experience and can’t wait to get back up to the mountain with them. Thanks to our guides and RMI!

This was an epic climb on an amazing and unusual route. Thank you so much to the guides for working so hard to create a viable route to the summit for our team, and special thanks to Jess for guiding us successfully to the summit! I can’t stress how grateful I am to RMI for the brilliant experience and excellence of the team.
