This weekend is my second try for Mt Rainier's summit. Yes I've done it before, and yes its going to be the same route. This will test my skill in other ways though. I'll be leading three other, mostly new climbers up, Alex Ramuglia being one of them actually. It'll be interesting to actually have to guide, keep track of, and take care of other people. So far the weather looks good and everything is set to go.

About the only worry I have is altitude sickness, not really for myself but more the other guys, otherwise it should be a good trip.
