How to climb Mt. Rainier
It made me 
"The hardest and most exhilarating thing I've ever done - and worth every moment."
How I did it: My team and I trained for over 3 months on Mt.Si and the surrounding hills. During our training we climbed to Camp Muir (the mountain base camp,) twice. There were several people on our climb who didn't emphasize training, and they essentially wasted their time and precious money. I cannot overemphasize the fact that you should be prepared.
Lessons & tips: The worst climbing accident in North American history occured on Mt. Rainier. The climb is treacherous and shouldn't be trivialized by anyone, young or old.
Resources: RMI Guides are your safest best.
