VIDEO: Four years after the Twisp River Fire nearly took his life, burn survivor Daniel Lyon has reached the top of Mount Rainier.
As Q13 News first shared with you earlier this week, he's been training for this climb for months, battling through the pain of being burned on 70 percent of his body and the dozens of surgeries that came with it.
His goal was to summit on August 19, four years to the day the fire took the lives of his three firefighter brothers and nearly took his.
At the last minute, his climbing group backed out and it looked like his dream wouldn't happen. But Lyon is proof that when you set your mind to something, nothing can stop you.
"It took literally everything in me to get to that summit," he said.
There was nothing easy about realizing his lifelong dream of summiting Mount Rainier.
