The 2 parties of 2 are still missing on Mt. Rainier. There has been a significant amount of snowfall since January and more storms packing high amounts of moisture and winds still buffet the mountain.

In mid-March, about 200 inches of snow is on the ground at Paradise. You can check winter snow depths here: http://www.nwac.us/data/OSOPVC
