EXCERPTED FROM THE INTRODUCTION It’s rare that I’m hunkered down in a tempest on Mount Rainier’s summit these days, but that was often the case for a period of my life. For nearly two decades, a majority of my time, energy, and passion was directed toward climbing up, and snowboarding down, as many of the routes as possible on Mount Rainier—always with a camera in tow. For me as a National Park Service climbing ranger, it was important to intimately know the mountain’s hidden terrain and unique features beyond the standard routes. It is my sincere hope that this guidebook opens the doors of Mount Rainier’s upper slopes and summit to you. May the sights, sounds, feelings, and smells of its meadows, glaciers, summit winds, and freshly fallen snow become part of your adventures and memories. May these experiences replay in your life as a reminder of magnificence, grandeur, and respite—as a memory of something really wonderful and awesome and special—because that is what Mount Rainier is.
