Tomorrow we leave for our four day mountain summit attempt. Our schedule will be as follows:
Day One: 3pm meet at RMI basecamp. Guides will go through our gear making sure we have everything we need. Basic climb orientation and climb overview.
Day Two: 8:15 am mountaineering school until 5pm. We will learn RMI safety protocol, hike up about two hours and practice self-arrests and other mountaineering basics. 7pm we have a fireside chat with Lou Whittaker.
Day Three: Leave Ashford at 8:15am for our accent. We will climb 4-6 hours to Camp Muir. We will make dinner here and rest here until we begin getting ready for the summit attempt around 1am.
Day Four: We will make our way from Camp Muir to the summit. After summitting, we will begin our 9,000'+ descent back to Paradise. The night we will enjoy a dinner at Paradise Lodge with family and friends.
One of our fellow teammates, Kevin, will be climbing with a GPS tracker. This means you can track our climb via him, as he will climbing within close proximity to us! Click here to watch us climb!
