Quote from: elk247 on May 30, 2013, 11:02:39 AMMy buddy summited Rainier last year, drank a can of vitamin R at the top. After seeing that picture i decided I wanted to do that. Then I saw how much it cost. Drinking beer at home is much cheaper and safer. But if i ever have thousands of dollars and can't find any good use for it but to pay to hike to the tallest hill to drink a beer than I will be all over it. EDIT* smossysgirl, bring nutterbutters. Just think if you walked up to the top of st. Helens how good a nutterbutter would taste. With chocolate milk?Lol St Helens is probably rated easy compaired to Rainier. It only ran us 22$ for passes 2 months in advance and cost of food/gas/utilities needed for the hike. Thats about it.

Lol When we summited Adams in one day it took 13 hours! When we summitted Adams we spent the night half way up and it took us 2 days. 13 hours is manly. I feel like a pansy now. Of course, I'm probably an old dude compared to you too.

Of course, I'm probably an old dude compared to you too. It was 7 years ago. I was 38. I had lost almost 100 pounds and was hiking and running allot before this to lose weight and get in tip top shape. This was my true test. I smoked a pack a day at that time still and ran the last 2 miles down.

I smoked a pack a day at that time still and ran the last 2 miles down. Yeah so you had me by a year. Booo. I suck. I think I could round trip it in one day as long as I wasn't carrying overnight gear. Going to drive down Friday night this year and camp at the trailhead, then summit and back to lunch counter Saturday, then wake up sunday morning and hike out/drive home. Last year we drove down Saturday morning 5.5 hours, hiked to the lunch counter then spent the night there. Summitted the next morning, hiked all the way back to the car and drove home 5.5 hours. Felt like I was going to keel over by the time I got home. Just want to enjoy it this year and not feel like we're rushing.
