DBBattig Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 I'm looking for a climbing partner (s) who wants to do Baker or Adams or Rainier this Spring/Summer 2008. I've been training for the past year and want to try Rainier in July for the 1st time. I've signed up for RMI's crevasse rescue course on May 18, 2008 and have all the gear. I'd be interested in joining your rope team or form a new one. Sincerely, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I3enhamin81 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I was thinking of signing up for the same class (don't have a date set yet), have all my gear, and want to climb similar mountains. I still don't have a good alpine tent, but can always rent or borrow one... otherwise I'm set. I want to get an enthusiastic start to the season. I have some aquaintances and friends that might be up for this, but I'm looking for someone with similar itchiness to get out there already.

OrygunJim Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 New to the alpine game myself, but have been up Hood a few times and own a pretty bomber two man tent, personal gear, etc. Looking to get up all three of these peaks this season. You have any dates, tentative or solid you're thinking of going up? Adams seems good any day now with the proper weather window, though Rainier is best attempted a little later in the season for first-timers. Don't know much about the Baker season, but a little research would solve that. Check your PM's and we can set something up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ranger Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 (edited) Hello all. I am actually signed up for the crevasse rescue class on May 18th and looking at climb this summer with a couple of friends. I have been a up Rainier a coule of time, but no expert by any means. So I am looking for some more climbers to head up with us. Anyone interested? Edited March 21, 2008 by Joe Ranger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave C Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I have a trip planned for June 6-13. I am looking for some people who are looking at doing Rainier and Adams. I went through RMI's class last year and summited via the Kautz route. I have all my own gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcyx81 Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Hi, when are you doing Rainier.. any dates? I'll be at Rainier National Park on 13th July 2008. And I intend to spend the next couple of days summitting Rainier, exploring some of the more technical routes. Will leave Rainier park either on 17 or 18 July back to Seattle. Let me know your plans.

Erin Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I can ski or slog and I'd be interested in climbing any of the 3! Rainer is up on my list because I've never climbed it but I'd ski off Baker or Adams as well...let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry W Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 How are you looking for partners for these climbs? I am experienced and have climbed Baker and numerous others in the Cascades but not Rainier or Adams. I have all gear and a flexible schedule.
