I have two questions first off I have a week off in sept and would like to climb something kind of big but not to hard. I am still new to alpine climbing. I have done a winter solo of Humphreys in AZ Was wondering what the weather is normaly like the first week of Sept. on Rainier and how hard it would be that time of year.
also I just got a GPS unit and am having a hard time finding GPS info on state summits. I would like to be able to put in some waypoints and routes before I head out. any help with this would be great. thanks
