  • In 2014, six climbers would attempt the most dangerous route on the most dangerous mountain in North America. They were alone...climbing Mt Rainer on a five day expedition, but when they didn't return to base camp, panic would set in....This is their story.

    on a west coast trip when i was a kid our family stopped at mt rainier and my dad forced marched us up to base camp. it was miserable. we explored off to the right where there was a horrifying sheer rock cliff that dropped down forever into a filthy glacier with countless gaping crevasses. the sight sent shivers down my spine. rainier is no joke

    As an Alaska Native and lifelong local, thank you for pronouncing Denali right. We’ll accept the other main pronunciation of course, but always nice to hear it said proper.

    Maybe it's just me, but it feels a bit backwards to hear that the Disappointment Cleaver route is easier than a route named Liberty Ridge. Had to go back, and check so that I had heard it right. Thanks for the interesting video.

    • @mikemcguire1160
      @mikemcguire1160 Před 8 měsíci +1

      Having climbed both routes I can assure you that Disappointment Cleaver is much easier that Liberty Ridge, not as steep, not as exposed.

    • @FinnishLapphund
      @FinnishLapphund Před 8 měsíci +4

      @@mikemcguire1160 I do believe you, but instinctively I still think the names makes it sounds as if someone said "This cleaver route was a disappointment! So difficult, I'll name it..." Then they tried the ridge instead, and went "What a liberty, much easier than the cleaver. I'll name this route..." That's how it sounds as if the names should've came to be, but I do realise that's just the interpretation my brain came up with when I heard the names.

    I love the Pacific Northwest. From my home in Portland I can see Mt. Hood. When I visit Seattle I can see Ranier. I can also see Mt. Saint Helen. They are beautiful...and dangerous. Even if you don't go into the mountains, they are volcanoes! I was here when St. Helens blew...nothing can prepare you for that. Whatever you imagine it will be like, it's surreal beyond that...I thought the ash was fallout from a nuclear explosion. I thought it was the end of the world. (I was young) 😏

    Mount Rainier is the third most prominent mountain in the United States. Denali is first. Mauna Kea is second. Both Alaska and Hawaii became States in 1959.

    Most peoples taking risk because it so hard to get a permit. And when they did it is fixed date even in bad weather, use it or lose it. Guess what most people do?
    It will be less problem if they allow to reschedule permits date due to bad weather, but then it will be no dramatic, people like drama news so….

    I really enjoy your content but can’t listen to it at night because of that insanely jarring intro track…..
    I mostly listen to CZcams as I’m falling asleep for a few hours so that just 100% rules your channel out because I get shocked awake every time it auto plays the next video……

      Concerning. Perhaps consider a different media for sleep for the subconscious. Binaural music is a suggestion.
