My buddy and I are planning on getting on Rainier early season this year. We're hoping to get on the Tahoma Cleaver. There is very little beta on this route. Does anyone have any good beta on this route (i.e. is it worth climbing, is it ever technical)? Preferably someone who climbed it early season, specifically in mid May. Thanks!

it's in vol. 1 of Beckey's Cascade Alpine Guide. Also in Dee Molennar's book the Challenge of Rainier, referencing the Mountaineer 1960.

did you try it?

No we ended up doing Liberty ridge
