A nice article on the dangers of exploring Mt. Rainier in Washington state; and, how some SAR and cavers are gathering information to provide info on what to do and where not to go if caught in a storm up there at the 14,000' level. A couple of NSS honchos are pushing this for National Geographic, as well as to provide safety information to those who climb there.
