When my buddy and I climbed Rainier earlier in the year, we had some time before our flight out of Seattle, so we went and checked out Helens from the Johnston Ridge Observatory. We decided then and there we needed to climb it, and came back just three months later. We met up with our other volcano mission regular in Seattle and a friend from Minnesota.
According to my gps, it was 4.37 miles, 4h 11m to the summit.
