I’m (F) 112 pounds and currently training with a 45 pound pack on an incline treadmill (24-degree incline), StairMaster for 1-2 hours, and shorter outdoor hikes with about 1,000 feet of elevation gain per mile. It’s been too hot lately to do longer hikes. I’m hoping I dont need to pack anything more than 45 pounds. My glutes and knees ache a bit but recover quickly. Climbing Rainier mid June.

Edit: guided climb with IMG DC route

Very excited for our first mountaineering trip. only 6 weeks away!
