“There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games.” –Ernest Hemingway

On April 4, 2015, Rushi and Varun traveled to Washington to take a 6-day Winter Mountaineering course hosted by the International Mountain Guides(IMG) on Mt. Rainier. The purpose of the trip was to serve as training for the upcoming Denali Expedition in Alaska. The climbing team consisted of four other members, in addition to 4 guides. This blog is a day-by-day report of that trip. Just click on the links at the bottom of each page to go to the next day. We hope you enjoy reading about our trip!
