Just had my first experience with early season weather on the mountain. Would like to make another attempt for the Kautz route up Rainier Late-July / early August, but as I am from Chicago there are not very many climbers where I hail. I'd like to return and possibly pair up with other climbers interested and experienced enough to make it up that route safely. I am willing to fly out there on relatively short notice and am fully geared. Have attended 3 different Cascade glacier mountaineering courses and have successfully summited Baker. Although somewhat of a greenhorn, I am in shape (35 years old), have cold weather experience, and would be an asset to a rope team. Please send me a private message if you are interested. Thanks much!
