Train To Climb Mt Rainier This informative video provides a comprehensive six-month training program for the novice-to-intermediate level alpine climber who wants to climb Mt. Rainier and other high-altitude peaks.

Customer Review: Train To Climb Mt Rainier
There aren’t too many training videos available on mountaineering. Actually this is the only one I know. Even books are rare. I really enjoyd the set of mountaineering specific gym exercises and stretches. I got new ideas for my training sessions. Also the suggested 6-month training program was very thorough and unique. Being able to do all that one must be fit enough for Mt. Rainier. I have only climbed European 4-thousand-meter peaks and 5-6 hours/wk of endurance training during the last 3 months before the trip has been enough so far (2-4 hours/wk during off season). Maybe the long summit day makes Mt. Rainier harder than e.g. Mont Blanc. I wish the DVD had included more endurance training on top of strength and flexibility training. Why they always make these documents so short? Mountaineering is a hobby of passion! I could easily watch a 20-hour training video on climbing high mountains. It’s good that they left training for other climbing sports out in the document, because I think the audience is different. It shows that the video was made years ago, which isn’t necessarily a flaw. Video and sound quality are good enough for the purpose, but what is more important is that the takes are long and stabile. I just hate the modern restless “millisecond/take” style. More videos like this, please!
Customer Review: Cool DVD on Mt. Rainier climbing
We love to provide our guests with movies and books on Mt. Rainier. We picked up three of these to put one at each of our Mt. Rainier cabins at Three Bears Lodge.
