Rastus Posted July 10, 2003 Share Posted July 10, 2003 (edited) There seems to be some debate amongst my group that we would have to "register" with the rangers to do a day climb of Little Tahoma? I'm talking leaving the trailhead for the Fryingpan route at like 3:30 AM and then getting back to the cars in the late afternoon or something. Do we have to register? The rangers aren't picking up the phone today... Edited July 10, 2003 by Rastus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pencil_Pusher Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 While I doubt you'd be tracked down and handcuffed, I think I remember some stipulation for Rainier about "if you go over 10k or onto a glacier" they want you to register.

jshamster Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Registration is required for Little T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluck Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Yep, registration is "required" for all folks above 10K. You may not be tracked down, but when we climbed at couple weeks ago, we did run into rangers at the trailhead. Â In theory, part of the registration is paying the annual $50 climbing fee per climber. The ranger station at White River only takes cash and checks. Â Here is some unsolicited beta. Bring and wear your brain bucket after you cross over the 9000' gap. Lots of spontaneous rock fall (we almost got the chop by a tire sized rocket on the snow field at about 10,500') that could ruin you day.

Old_Man Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Sure it's not $30?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluck Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Yep...sorry about that... my 3s and 5s sometimes pull a dyslexia thing when I type. $30 bucks it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
