Prepped for a successful summit climb on Rainier (George Dunn)
IMG Lead Guide, Robert Jantzen, and his crew summited yesterday to make it three for three on Rainier! Teams are still on the Ingraham Direct, but we don’t expect it to last much longer. Fortunately, freezing levels should be down to about 7,000′ by Tuesday and at the very least, they’ll make the going on the Muir Snowfield a bit less taxing.
In other Rainier news, Nickel Wood and his Liberty Ridge team head out tomorrow morning… and we are a week away for our first Fuhrer Finger climb of the season!
