The season has come to an end at Camp Schurman for 2022. Visitation has been next to zero for the past few weeks. Access up the Inter glacier is on exposed glacial ice and challenging travel. The Emmons and Winthrop glaciers continue to have several large crevasse systems above the Corridor that continue to thwart any climbing attempts.

If you do chose to take and adventure and travel to Camp Schurman this Fall be aware that there are no open toilet facilities, but a Blue Bag barrel does remain available. You may have to clear off a bit of snow to find it. Also, be aware that the climbing rangers are no longer regularly staffing Camp Schurman. Be completely self-reliant - any rescue could be hours and even days away!
Climbing and Wilderness permits are still required thru the Fall and Winter for travel on Mount Rainier above 10,000 feet and on its Glaciers. These can still be acquired at the White River Ranger Station in person or via self registration.

Have a great Fall and Winter Season and we look forward to seeing you back at Mount Rainier and Camp Schurman in 2023.
