Mt Rainier

A view (right to left) of the Nisqually, Wilson, (the Turtle snow field) and Upper Kautz glaciers. The "fan" that provides the easist access to the Wilson and Kautz glaciers is visible in the lower center of the picture. The ever present Kautz ice cliff can be seen above the Turtle snow field.

Re: When taken?

I think it was around July 23, 2003. We didn't summit on this trip but came back a year later in late July and completed the Kautz Glacier route. We only saw four other people on the route in the 4 days we were there and that was on our last day on the mountain.
