First Successful Ascent of Mt. Rainier, 1870
by Hazard Stevens
Join us as we delve into the harrowing adventure of Hazard Stevens and P.B. Van Trump, the first to successfully ascend Mt. Rainier in 1870. Guided by Sluiskin, a Native American, they dared to challenge the local belief that the mountain was enchanted and inhabited by an evil spirit. The duo, in their audacity, believed they could conquer the summit and return the same day, leaving behind crucial survival gear. Caught in the bitter cold, they endured a nightmarish night, huddled near a volcanic steam vent within an ice cave. This tale, originally published in the Atlantic Monthly in 1876 and later introduced by Edmond S. Meany in 1916, is a testament to human resilience and daring spirit. (Summary by Sue Anderson)
