A Guide’s Day Off: Ski The Fuhrer Finger On Mt. Rainier

May 17, 2018

You gotta go up to come down! (Peter Stone)
Now the fun part. (Peter Stone)
Spring skiing on Mt. Rainier! (Peter Stone)

 

Yesterday IMG Guide Peter Stone along with RMI Guides Ben Ammon and Grayson Swingle set the logos aside and took full advantage of a day off & good spring skiing conditions on Mt. Rainier. Their agenda was a climb of the DC route (currently the Ingraham Direct) and then a ski of the Kautz, but conditions & time pushed their objective over to the Fuhrer Finger. The skiing wasn’t optimal, but still a great ski nonetheless. Roundtrip clocked in at just under 12 hours.

While we’re talking Mt. Rainier – if you’re looking for a climb on an intermediate route on Mt. Rainier, we do still have some availability on our Kautz & Fuhrer Finger programs.  Drop us a line and get signed up!
