    This is a great video. Do you by chance have a high res version of that AMAZING night image looking south from Camp Muir where you can see Adams, St.Helens, and Hood? I would love to have a copy of that photo!

      Ben Maund awesome, congrats! I have my first attempt weekend of the 14th. Did they reroute around that snow bridge yet?

    • @benmaundvisuals
      @benmaundvisuals  6 лет назад

      Scott Gile thank you! Good luck! Part of it collapsed in but it’s still there. It would be very sketchy crossing it during the day when it’s warm and soft. We left at 11pm so that we could cross it, summit, and head down while things were still frozen. They are changing the route every week so I am sure it will be different when you go

    Have you notice any changes in the Mt? Please keep alert to any change in sharp or snow melt. Mt Rainier is about to blow.

    Could you explain more about the snow bridge preventing you guys from hitting the summit? I didn't really see/understand it that well

    • @benmaundvisuals
      @benmaundvisuals  Год назад

      It wasn't pictured well in the video. It was just an actual snow bridge that had been melting out slowly. We left from Muir too late and snow would have been soft coming back from the summit. We attempted the following week and left much earlier from Muir...ended up summiting that attempt, we felt the risk was reduced with the colder temps. Thanks for watching!
