Climb for Himalaya Children - Join Us & Choose Your Mountain!
Join us this July to climb either Mt. Rainier or Mt. Baker, both in Washington State, to support the work of the Mitrata-Nepal Foundation For Children to educate disadvantaged children in Nepal.
Choose Your Mountain!
Due to National Park Regulations restricting us to one route on Mt. Rainier this year, we've decided to add a climb of Mt. Baker as a slightly less serious option - both in terms of difficulty, and time commitment.
No prior mountaineering experience is required for either mountain. You will be trained on how to use technical mountaineering gear like ropes, harnesses, ice axes and crampons during the ascent.
Climbing these mountains are physically challenging endeavors, but if you get in serious shape, most people can be successful -- depending on weather and route conditions.
Mt. Rainier (elevation 14,411 feet) - 9 spots total
Registration fee: $200
Minimum fundraising commitment: $3000
Dates: July 10th to 12th
Mt. Baker (elevation 10,781 feet) - 9 spots total
Registration fee: $100
Minimum fundraising commitment: $1000
Dates: July 12th to 13th

So if you're seriously considering it, register soon!
