Steamboat Prow, the bow of the mountain ship, points at about 9,725 feet or so just above Camp Shurman. The prow points straight up the Emmons Glacier to Columbia Crest & the summit of Ti’Swaq’/Rainier. I climbed the Emmons Route with the Seattle Mountaineers back in the summer of 1996 on a 100° F heat wave day. Such was considered unusual at the time, but seems more commonplace now as Global Climate Disruption takes it toll with global warming.
