Hey Folks,
I'm trying to plan a climb of Rainier via the main Disappointment Cleaver route for next year and I'd like to get a general sense of when the best time to climb is with the two main factors being weather stability and route condition in respect to crevasse danger.
Since there will only be two of us I'd like to minimize the danger of a crevasse fall, yet I don't want to go so early in the season as to greatly increase the chances of very foul weather.
Thanks.
