dinomyte Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 OK folks, I thought I would add my request to the long list of those looking for a partner or two for Rainier. First, I should mention that I mean no offense to other folks who have made this request but none have caught my eye as folks I am really itching to climb with. Let me tell you about me: I'm 39 and in great shape. I've climbed a number of hills - Baker, Shasta, Adams, Hood, Shuksan, Olympus, Glacier Peak, Jeff, Jack, Washington, North, Middle and South Sister, and so on, as well as some stuff in Utah. I have some glacier experience. I'm not looking for a guided trip, but would probably buy a round or two after. Sure, I'd rather go with someone who has been on the mountain before. I'm happy to meet and climb a few things beforehand to get comfortable. I have gear. I am safe. I'd rather turn back and try later than climb into trouble. I am easy going and fun to be around! I am pretty flexible on timing, though weekends are a bit better for me. Thanks. Jon Quote
stevetimetravlr Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 They are trying to rescue a climber on Liberty Ridge at the moment who has been up there since Friday. he is hypothermic and in trouble. Rainier is a big bad hill! Quote
YocumRidge Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 You cannot wish for a better partner . Bribe him with gas money, food, beer to go climbing Rainier or whatever with. Jon. Quote
