Mount Rainier - Summit 2025

Can two girls from the very flat state of Florida summit the highest glaciated peak in the lower 48? Join us as we tackle this beauty of a mountain with IMG Guides leading the way. From the IMG headquarters to the parking lot at Paradise, and all the way up to Camp Muir, we took the "DC Route" straight to the top at 14,400ft! Shoutout to our fellow climbers who also made this trip magical- Thankam, Vysakh, Travis, Atticus and Mike. And a huge thank you to our amazing guides!!
