Elevated Exposures: Mount Rainier’s Challenge to Photographers and Climbers

Climbing Mount Rainier is a popular but challenging endeavor. The mountain claims lives each year due to its unpredictable weather and difficult terrain. Spring is the most popular time to climb the easier routes, before major crevasses open. For more technical routes it also reduces the chances of snow or rockfall. Winter climbing freezes more rocks in place allowing climbs such as Gibraltar which are unsafe even in the spring.
