One slip and a nice day out changes fast on Rainier. Here's one moment from a 10 hour technical rescue off the Muir Snowfield. MRNP SAR Rangers leading a team of TMR Patrollers. Deep snow and gale force winds overcome by ropes, rigging, a hypowrap, advanced chemistry & sheer bloody mindedness. Patient says they're doing well and are on the road to recovery. Special thanks to the NPS and our new TMR advanced medics - great job! ... See MoreSee Less

Mrs Alicia Malone is so wonderful to work with. As a first time investor, I wasn’t completely sure of the process but Mrs Alicia Malone helped me through it all and I made a profit of $6,500 with an investment of $600.

We want to give a shout out to our friends at Minus 33. They donated a bunch of cold weather gear to us and some other Washington State SAR teams. This gear is for hypothermic or soon to be hypothermic patients. Its a fantastic way to give back to the community and I hope you all consider checking out their website for some goodies this winter. www.minus33.com ... See MoreSee Less

I'm bummed I moved outta the area before I got to ski Ellinor. Although it's pretty intimidating from what I remember glissading last time. I would love to ski all the way back down to big creek if I could.
