Thank you so much to the RMI team. Every member was excellent at what they do. A special thank you to Guides Sam, Rosie and George. They got me through this tough and amazing experience. How special it was to complete this with my son. Thanks again!

RMI Guide Dustin Wittmier and team reached the summit of Mt. Rainier via the Emmons! All team members were able to look out on the beautiful skies this morning from 14,000 ft. Nice work team!
They will get up early tomorrow morning, spend sometime practice crevasse rescue before starting their descent and return back to Rainier Basecamp in the afternoon for their celebratory lunch.
Prayers answered. So proud of you, Tyler and the rest of your team! Can’t wait to hear your stories.

The Four Day Climb Led by RMI Guides Brent Okita and Drew O'Brien reached 13,400' on Mt. Rainier before poor weather forced them to abort and head back towards the shelter of Camp Muir. The team is currently at Camp Muir and will start their descent to Paradise soon.
Congratulations Team!
Looks like the summit view was way better yesterday than the day before. Guess the delay was so everyone could have the awesome view! Congratulations!
