Rating: Summary: Know Before You Go Review: The Rainier dvd gets your heart pumping! This dvd offers you the opportunity to fully visualize and understand what is to be expected from you on the mountain. With narration from the knowledgeable climber and expedition leader Eric Simonson, you learn the reality. This interactive climbing dvd will complement any Mt. Rainier guide book and will when viewed, set you aside from those on the mountain with just a general idea and a vague picture of where they are heading. As a climber myself, one thing I love as much as the views and the many experiences is to be able to keep climbing. Know Before You Go! ~009
Rating: Summary: Big disappointment Review: This DVD was terrible, I bought two DVD about Mt Rainier and this one was terrible, the sounds was horrible pictures are bad and the information worse, I would recommend other DVD on Rainier.
Rating: Summary: Non-climbers point of view Review: This has to be the best video and informational DVD on climbing MT. Rainier. I have lived in the Pacific Northwest all my life,and have never had a desire to climb Mt. Rainier. After seeing the DVD,I KNOW I will never climb it. But I often wondered what it was like,and what was up there ,now I know. It is beautiful. I have watched it over and over and still find new things everytime I veiw it. Thank you Ascend team for putting out such a fine product. Now I can climb Mt.Rainier from my easy chair whenever I want.
Rating: Summary: Eric Simonson Review: What makes this DVD great are the interviews with Eric Simonson, mixed with video footage of the routes. Together, you really get a sense of what it's like up on the mountain. Not to mention, you get Eric's years of advice and knowledge. If you are aspiring to climb Mount Rainier, or just want to know what it's like up there, the Ascend Mt. Rainier DVD will satisfy your coursity and inform you along the way. Happy climbing
