Joatman Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 (edited) Looking for a little noob advice. I did a trip up Rainier with RMI late June. We got turned around at 12k because of weather. I questioned RMI about any options for multiple summit attempts in the event of unfavorable weather. They told me that due to their contract with the park, they are allowed only so many teams headed to the summit at any one time. Since they book solid, teams are only allowed one attempt. Are there any other options for those like me that don't have the experience to go it alone, yet have the time to stick around and wait out a short spell of bad weather? I'd like to come back out next year and give it another try, but not sure I am willing to spend the $$$ with RMI to only get the one shot. That's a big crap shoot with my cash. One plus... I did get to see part of the large icefall on the Nisqually on the way up to Muir. Thanks! Edited July 12, 2011 by Joatman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
