3.0 out of 5 stars Great Information, but...., December 27, 2003
By A Customer
The content of this DVD is VERY informative, but beware: the "DVD" I received does not play in a standard DVD player that connects to a TV. It only plays on a computer DVD drive. I called the producers and they said that because of something in the process of making DVDs, it might not play on all standard players. So ... buyer beware. Otherwise the information is comprehensive, and Eric Simonson is very engaging as he tells the viewer about just what it takes to climb Rainier.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great DVD, March 16, 2003
By Doug Seiersen (Everett, WA USA) - See all my reviews
Being a novice climber and wanting to climb Mt. Rainier I found this DVD extremely helpful. It includes great route decriptions with some fun interative maps, 360 degree views etc. I feel this DVD is well worth purchasing for anyone interested in attempting Rainier ... or even if you're just into some great footage of a spectacular mountain. I look forward to the next addition .... Ascend Mt. Baker!

2.0 out of 5 stars Adequate, February 6, 2003
By A Customer
Ok guide. Kind of boring with not a lot of high-quality visuals. Bad sound too. All the other reviews sound like they were written by the company that makes them.

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. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Cool
Not really that interesting, there are no actual "climbing" shots at all, it's mostly a mish mosh of approach footage and a small amount of slogging on a glacier.

BORING!
