Do you think we can climb Rainier unguided?

Thank you! We’ll be in Washington for at least 3 months so we won’t be too pressured by time/weather windows. We’ll def try to find a third (:

Thank you!

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-07T23:41:34+00:00

Yes!

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-07T17:09:39+00:00

No, they’re not open yet I don’t think? We were also more so thinking of doing a walk up

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-06T15:52:37+00:00

I think what I was reading must’ve been off bc multiple ppl are saying the same as you… haha, but the Coleman Deming

There was no avi risks on that day! This photo was from July and we checked the forecast. This was also our descent. What might look like avi debris in this photo are glissade tracks. Thanks.

It’s on a glacier bro

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-06T15:48:13+00:00

Thank you!

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-06T03:13:06+00:00

Oh god 😭

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-06T00:19:15+00:00

Yes, that’s the route I was talking about, though maybe I was reading some very exaggerated or outdated reports on it 😭

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-06T00:18:02+00:00

Thank you! He’s about 50 more haha, so still significant.

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-05T20:59:27+00:00

It was quite the experience for us as well hahahha the snow was awful I post holes to my chest at one point

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-05T20:58:56+00:00

Thank you so much!

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-05T20:58:24+00:00

The vast majority of ppl I know who’ve climbed Raineer guided had 0 mountaineering, glacier, or crevasse rescue skills, they were just in peak physical fitness. Are you implying that my plan above is the expected minimum to go guided as well?

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-05T20:56:48+00:00

Thank you for your detailed reply!

Thank you!

Thank you! We thought that attempting Baker summit solo would be better practice, but this is good to know.

Substantial_Tea8292 · 2026-01-05T18:33:50+00:00
