“Native Americans did believe that spirits inhabited the mountain. They were a superstitious people and respected those spirits and their powers. One entity they desired as a guardian spirit was the Thunderbird, whom they believed lived in a cave on Mount Rainier. Many young Indian braves went to the mountain on spirit quests." - Bette Filley - The Big Fact Book About Mount Rainier

This trip begins the day you decide to sign up and climb Mt. Rainier. The euphoria is matched with an incredible welcome package to introduce you to the mountain and what you've signed up for. Next, we'll introduce you to your team: the others who have so boldly chose to join you. In addition, we will assist you in creating a training program that will help ensure your odds for summiting Mt. Rainier.

In the coming months, we will support your preparation and learning with an online moderated discussion list and website. We understand you are a busy achiever and we take great strides to make sure all contact is high-signal-to-noise and on a regular schedule that will support you best. Also, twice a month, join us for a Teleconference with a world class leader in the field of mountaineering, ultra-marathons, business strategy, personal development or other engaging topics. In case you would like to further review, all emails are archived for easy review and all Teleconferences are available for playback.

You'll meet World Class leaders in physical and mental preparation such as Stu Mittleman, ultra-marathoner who ran 3,200 miles across the country at a pace of 52 miles/day. You'll learn his secrets of ultra-endurance and how to create unlimited energy in your everyday life. Stu will personally join us at the mountain to support & educate you during the climb.

Leading up to the climb, you will be greeting by our service-oriented staff, incredible views, wonderful catering and pleasant lodging. Day 1 will use leading edge change technology at the Wellspring Resort to set huge goals while learning how to build a close, cohesive team in under 10 hours. By the end of the day, you will feel as if you know many of these people for a lifetime.

Day 2 is spent on the mountain with RMI's seasoned guides for Climb School. RMI's ranks include people who have summited the mountain over 300 times and have guided literally 1000's of people up multiple mountains. Also, they have the distinction of having the only person who summited Mt. Everest twice in the same day (he said he forgot his wallet). During this day, you will be fit with your equipment and given the chance to learn critical skills that will serve you on your climb, including pressure breathing, rest stepping, self-arrest and rope skills. This day is a blast as you slide down the mountain and learn how to step your descent by digging in with your ice ax.

Peter Whittaker, owner of Rainier Mountaineering Inc., will be personally joining and guiding for us on the climb. Peter has over 195 summits of Mt. Rainier and knows how to take care of the widest range of clients.

Day 3 is the initial climb from Paradise (5,400 ft.) to Camp Muir (10,000 ft.). At Camp Muir, we eat dinner as we make final preparations for the Summit.

On Day 4, you will attempt the summit. Waking up as early at 1am, you will don gear and headlights to trek off into the night to begin your summit attempt. As you wind your way across Ingraham Flats and up Disappointment Cleaver, you will experience sights beyond your scope and learn to know more about yourself on the edge than you can imagine. If conditions permit, by 10 am, you will be standing on top of Mt. Rainier, 14,410 ft. You can reach the box that has the registration book and sign your name to the exclusive club of those who reach the summit. As you climb down, you are greeted by those mere tourists at the bottom and you will be carted off to a hot shower and a celebration dinner of tremendous magnitude. Stories will be shared and special efforts will be rewarded, completing a well earned adventure to the top.

On Day 5, you be treated to a decadent late brunch, massage and hot tubs at Wellspring, followed by a day-long reflection session where you will find greater meaning to your climb on Rainier and make important plans on what you want to do when you get back from the mountain. This day is capped off by a celebration party and an evening hot tub under the stars.

In the months afterwards, after the peak experiences are over and the blisters begin to heal, you receive 3 months of personalized coaching as well as more Teleconference calls to help seal and reveal the learning of your adventure. The follow up guarantees your learning and growth continues beyond the mountain. Most importantly, we help you apply your experience to your life to make it better in the long term. Effective follow up is the key to long term growth, I am committed to this concept and want to make sure you are served well before, during and long after the trip.

Finally, your experience will culminate in a Seattle reunion party where you will rejoin with your other teammates and truly discover how much has changed since your beginning and you'll discover the true products of this trip: friendships that will last a life time and personal ability to make any thing you think of reality.
