Both JanSport teams heading to the trailhead earlier today.
IMG Chief Guide and Partner George Dunn led our second JanSport team to the summit early this morning. It was cold and windy in the early morning hours on Mt. Rainier, but that wasn’t enough to stop them from tagging the top. So if you’re doing the math that make 16 summits – 6 on top yesterday (Emmons) and another 10 summits today via the Ingraham Direct. Congrats to all the JanSport climbers and IMG Guides – nice work!
Skip and Co. getting some work done while enjoying a Rainier Beer (or two).
Skip Yowell, Co-founder of JanSport, is here today and congratulated the teams when they pulled into HQ this afternoon. Earlier today he and a few members of his staff took advantage of the sun and got some work done…yes those are Rainier Beers on the table.
Right now all the climbers are showering up, taking naps and getting ready for the annual JanSport party tonight. Now the fun begins!
