Look closely through the clouds in the center of the photo. Picture really doesn't do it justice! |
We're climbing Mount Rainier (elev. 14,410) July 15-18, and we have partnered with the Alzheimer's Association to raise awareness/money for the fight against Alzheimer's. This blog will serve as a tool to not only raise awareness, but it will also capture the history of our training, the climb itself, and all the soreness afterwards. Please consider making a monetary contribution to the Alzheimer's Association by clicking the contribution form link on the left side of the page. Thanks!

Excursion to our Basecamp
So everyone and there luggage and gear arrived without too much hassle. Seattle in July is very nice, but clouds prohibited us from seeing The Mountain from downtown. On our way in, I grabbed this shot out the window.
For now we are trying to relax and hydrate as much as possible. Tomorrow we start activities. In the morning we'll try to hit the Park Visitor Center for some touristy stuff, then head to the outfitter to shift focus to gear. Will keep you posted, and we can take names for the banner up to Monday evening. E-mail them to otter_sports@yahoo.com.
