*The Expedition*

Yesterday Sam and a friend climbed to camp Mier (base camp) on Mt. Rainer. He has been so excited to do this and can't wait until the forth of July when him and some other guys from our ward are climbing to the top. It took the guys 5 hours to reach the camp and when they climb to the top they will sleep at camp for a couple of hours then at midnight will wake up and climb the rest of the 8 hours to the top. It is really hard do to the elevation and Sam said even at the half way he could really tell a difference in breathing. Here are some of the pictures he took.
