looking for people to climb Mt. Rainier with
Posted: Fri Feb 19, 2010 3:34 am
Hi, I am obviously new to this forum. I would like to climb Mt. Rainer in Late June/early July this coming summer. Problem is, I don't know anyone who can climb with me at this time.
I have climbed Denali guided with AMS and have taken a 6 day MTN course with AMS prior to climbing Denali.
so,
2008, 6 day course on the Kahiltna Glacier up near the higher base camp
2009, climbed Denali.
I made it to 19,200 before making the decision myself to turn around. I had a bad day and it happened to be summit day. Had a headache and was feeling like toast.
Well, I am 32 and have two children and a wife and work in Orlando Florida with children at a children's home.
I was thinking of doing Rainer solo, but wanted to see if anyone was gearing up for a trip and would not mind another climber. I have gear. I don't know how else to say it, but I would like to see if I could join a group and perhaps begin correspondence. Thanks for any advice or help.
