Summitting was the highlight, that is until the proposal of course. Joel actually proposed on the last day of the trip, just before reaching Glacier Basin Campground. Joel and I were hiking alone\u00c2\u00a0at the bottom of the inter glacier, we were chatting about how training for Rainier and the entire trip itself really proved how strong our relationship is. Next thing I knew Joel is on one knee holding a ring, I was very excited!\u00c2\u00a0We have had\u00c2\u00a0many reasons to celebrate (summitting, Joel&#8217;s 30th b-day and the proposal), this trip is going to be in our hearts and memories forever. We&#8217;re thinking our next adventure, besides marriage, could possibly be Kilimanjaro for my 30th B-day.<\/p>\n<p>-Christina<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_984\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NfEVaw_ElrA\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-984\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-984 \" title=\"Ian &amp; Rodica\" src=\"http:\/\/mountainguides.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/Proposal-300x236.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"215\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mountainguides.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/Proposal-300x236.jpg 300w, http:\/\/mountainguides.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/Proposal.jpg 595w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-984\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Congratulations    Ian &amp; Rodica!<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong><em>Ian &amp; Rodica<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It was Rodica&#8217;s dream since she was a little girl in Romania to stand on top of Mount Rainier.
