July 12, 2010 The last few days have been pretty special for quite a few folks who summitted Mt. Rainier, but for 4 of them it’ll be remembered for another reason… On July 9th after summitting Mt. Rainier via the Emmons Route we had our first proposal & engagement of the season then just two […]
July 11, 2010 IMG Partner George Dunn came down yesterday afternoon after grabbing his 498th summit of Mt. Rainier. He took up several Boy Scouts and their parents on a 3-day climb, and after a couple nights at Camp Muir he and his team summitted in some great weather. George will head up for 499 […]
July 8, 2010 We heard from several of our Rainier teams this morning: Andy called in from the summit with his Kautz team! We’d been shut down our previous two trips on the Kautz so this is excellent news! Andy also informed us that our Emmons team summitted this morning as well – he relayed […]
June 23, 2010 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 […]
June 22, 2010 IMG Guide John Race called in from the summit of Mt. Rainier this morning! They reached the top at roughly 8:00am this morning. Below are some pics…enjoy! The DC JanSport team reached The Flats this afternoon and are lieing down for a nap before their rude awakening at 10:30pm tonight for a […]
June 21, 2010 Our teams on Rainier are at their camps and getting as much rest as possible. Our Emmons Team made it to Camp Schurman (9500ft.) in good form this afternoon and after a rice noodle stir fry dinner they hit the hay pretty early to get some sleep before their alpine start tomorrow […]
June 21, 2010 Our JanSport climbers are on the move on Mt. Rainier and thanks to the nice guys over at Spot Adventures, who gave us several SPOT Satellite GPS Messengers for our climbers, you can now follow their progress as they climb the two different routes. Click the map below to track their climb.
June 20, 2010 Just got word from our JanSport Team over on the Emmons… They’re all settled in at their first camp on the Inter Glacier (7800ft.). Not that they need more to celebrate, but it’s Anne’s (guide) birthday. Fellow guide John Race was kind enough to bring along a little cake to help celebrate […]
June 17, 2010 Our Rainier teams reported in this morning… Phil and his team summitted on the DC, but the Kautz and Emmons teams turned around. Low visibility and tough navigation for the Emmons team and some unstable snow condition for our Kautz crew, but all are back at their camps safe and sound. They’ll […]
June 15, 2010 Summit! Our Disappointment Cleaver (DC) team summitted quite early this morning due to cold conditions and the direct route up the Ingraham Glacier. After summitting around daybreak, they quickly made their way down to The Flats and into Camp Muir. After a nice break at Muir they cruised on down the snowfield […]
