[Rainier in July]

Just a local's suggestion, July is typically very late for Hood, I would recommend against it.  Also, the interesting (North Side) routes on Adams could very well be out of condition and the South Spur route will be pretty uninteresting after Rainier. 

Not to highjack your thread, but have you considered climbing the Emmons on Rainier (shorter drive from Sea-Tac and closer to the goods in the North)and then heading north to sample the North Cascades?  Easton Glacier on Baker and Suphide Glacier on Shuksan would be a very convenient enchainment.  Or, if you have had enough of big glaciers you could do the Ruth-Icy Traverse, one of the most scenic, moderate, and easily approached routes in the North Cascades.

Just a local's opinion, take it or leave it.

Great advice!

[Scarpa Drago sizing]

I size mine the same Furias and Instinct VS. I'm 9.5-10 in street shoes (depending on the brand) and wear a 41. I size down to 40.5 for a really tight fit and projecting when need be.
