Alpinist | Alpinist 88 | Winter 2024-25
Issue 88 features a Mountain Profile on Mt. Rainier by David Gladish. For thousands of years, Indigenous peoples have traveled to what has been known as Takhoma, Tahoma, təqʷubəʔ and many other names, drawn to the resources available among the mountain’s verdant valleys and slopes. It wasn’t until 1792 that Captain George Vancouver saw the peak from a distance and gave it a new name: Mt. Rainier.

Gladish considers the history of the influential mountain and how it has shaped those drawn to it while Holly Yu Tung Chen, Chris Weidner and Cal’ Smith share stories of their own.
