He&#8217;s in the dark grey t-shirt right smack in the middle of the photo below&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This photo was taken outside the Alpine Inn over at Crystal Mountain. Our Emmons Teams meet there at 2pm on day 1 for their gear check, orientation and instruction before their group dinner at 6:30pm. Day 2 starts with breakfast and a shuttle to the trail head at the White River entrance to Mt. Rainier National Park&#8230; The day ends at around 8000ft on the Inter Glacier&#8230; On Day 3 they&#8217;ll make their way to Camp Schurman at 9500ft. The night of Day 3 or the early morning of Day 4 they&#8217;ll make their way to the summit (Rainier permitting of course) and back to camp. On Day 5 (or Day 4 of the climb) they&#8217;ll make their way back to the trailhead for a shuttle back to the Alpine Inn for a burger and a well deserved beer!<\/p>\n<p>Greg&#8217;s going to try to email photos along the way so check back later this week to see how the climb&#8217;s going.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"370\" width=\"495\" align=\"middle\" src=\"http:\/\/images2d.snapfish.com\/232323232%7Ffp5369%3A%3Enu%3D337%3B%3E275%3E4%3A3%3EWSNRCG%3D3268%3B34385345nu0mrj\" \/><meta content=\"text\/html; charset=utf-8\" http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" \/><meta content=\"Word.Document\" name=\"ProgId\" \/><meta content=\"Microsoft Word 11\" name=\"Generator\" \/><meta content=\"Microsoft Word 11\" name=\"Originator\" \/>\n<link rel=\"File-List\" \/><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>  <w:WordDocument>   <w:View>Normal<\/w:View>   <w:Zoom>0<\/w:Zoom>   <w:PunctuationKerning\/>   <w:ValidateAgainstSchemas\/>   <w:SaveIfXMLInvalid>false<\/w:SaveIfXMLInvalid>   <w:IgnoreMixedContent>false<\/w:IgnoreMixedContent>   <w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText>false<\/w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText>   <w:Compatibility>    <w:BreakWrappedTables\/>    <w:SnapToGridInCell\/>    <w:WrapTextWithPunct\/>    <w:UseAsianBreakRules\/>    <w:DontGrowAutofit\/>   <\/w:Compatibility>   <w:BrowserLevel>MicrosoftInternetExplorer4<\/w:BrowserLevel>  <\/w:WordDocument> <\/xml><![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>  <w:LatentStyles DefLockedState=\"false\" LatentStyleCount=\"156\">  <\/w:LatentStyles> <\/xml><![endif]--><!--[if !mso]><object  classid=\"clsid:38481807-CA0E-42D2-BF39-B33AF135CC4D\" id=ieooui><\/object> \n\n<style> st1\\:*{behavior:url(#ieooui) } <\/style>\n\n <![endif]--><\/p>\n<style> <!--  \/* Style Definitions *\/  p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal \t{mso-style-parent:\"\"; \tmargin:0in; \tmargin-bottom:.0001pt; \tmso-pagination:widow-orphan; \tfont-size:12.0pt; \tfont-family:\"Times New Roman\"; \tmso-fareast-font-family:\"Times New Roman\";} span.EmailStyle15 \t{mso-style-type:personal; \tmso-style-noshow:yes; \tmso-ansi-font-size:10.0pt; \tmso-bidi-font-size:10.0pt; \tfont-family:Arial; \tmso-ascii-font-family:Arial; \tmso-hansi-font-family:Arial; \tmso-bidi-font-family:Arial; \tcolor:windowtext;} @page Section1 \t{size:8.5in 11.0in; \tmargin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; \tmso-header-margin:.5in; \tmso-footer-margin:.5in; \tmso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 \t{page:Section1;} --> <\/style>\n<p><!--[if gte mso 10]> \n\n<style>  \/* Style Definitions *\/  table.MsoNormalTable \t{mso-style-name:\"Table Normal\"; \tmso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; \tmso-tstyle-colband-size:0; \tmso-style-noshow:yes; \tmso-style-parent:\"\"; \tmso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; \tmso-para-margin:0in; \tmso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; \tmso-pagination:widow-orphan; \tfont-size:10.0pt; \tfont-family:\"Times New Roman\"; \tmso-ansi-language:#0400; \tmso-fareast-language:#0400; \tmso-bidi-language:#0400;} <\/style>\n\n <![endif]--><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial\">Tye Chapman<br \/>\nOperations Manager<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July 26, 2009 IMG Guide Greg Vernovage emailed me this photo last night to illustrate the size of the team he&#8217;ll be leading up Mt.
