Cheers, Robin Rob - do you know of anyone?

Hi all - my colleague and I are over from Australia at the end of Feb - we are very keen to climb Mt Rainier, the traditional Guide (AA, RMI, IMG, MM) companies don't have guides available at that time so we are looking for a climbing partner / guide to ascend with, more than happy to pay expenses . . . please post if you are interested or write to robin_cy@hotmail.com . . Cheers and look forward to hearing from you :-) Robin
