Ocean and Laura in helmets on a glacier on Mount Rainier

A photo story

On the glacier of Rainier

Laura and I, in helmets, on a glacier on Mount Rainier in June 2024, the day before the summit. It was cold, around 18, under a partly cloudy sky, with only a light breeze.

The glaciers are why Rainier is a real mountaineering day, not just a walk up rock. We had our helmets on, and I took this selfie on the ice.
