Summit Crater (Nickel Wood)
Looking for a more remote challenge on Mt. Rainier than the standard Camp Muir/DC climb? We thought you might be! And we have options for you…
If you are physically fit and can carry a 50lb pack uphill for several thousand feet but are still a beginner mountaineer, take a look at the 4.5 Day Emmons Climb! We currently have one opening on the June 15-19 trip.

If you are physically fit and can carry a 50lb pack uphill for several thousand feet on very steep terrain and have the requisite experience for an intermediate route, take a look at our 5.5 Day Kautz Climb! We currently have one opening on our July 7-12 trip.
Climbers on the Kautz (Patty O’Rourke)
Both glaciers are off the beaten path and require teams to be self-sufficient. This can be a welcome escape on a mountain that sees as many visitors as Rainier does every year!
Call the IMG office at 360-569-2609 or email office@mountainguides.com for more information. These spots won’t last!
