empty lot... weather looking good...






clouds rolling over































well you wasted no time at all getting an AT rig put together and up on the snow!  looks like a nice day to try out all the new gear.
Thanks for sharing the great pics!
how r the boot s workin for you?? are the liners too tight?  i still have 29 liners for those boots that i dont use.

Rainier is my favorite place.  for so many reasons.  i wish you many great voyages
We wish we would have had the bluebird day Silas and the crew had on the Paradise Glacier the day before but we made the most of it. From about 7000 ft on there was little visibility, 15 ft maybe. 

Also spoke to a guy with a 74 Datsun who just came down from Muir.  Quite an inspirational character. 
Nice!  Sweet pics and vid.  Congrats on TAY #1!
LOVE the photos!  Great adventure.
Really like how these photos turned out. What camera are you using? Did you edit them after?

They just look that good because the weren't stuck in a cloud like all of our photos.
