What is the best of these two harnesses for climbing Mt Rainier? Black Diamond Momentum AL Climbing Harness vs Black Diamond Vario Speed adjustable. Thank you

If you have to choose between the two, then momentum. If you have more options, I would go with the new Couloir.

If you are just using it for roped glacier travel and some light belaying then I would look into this harness. It is super cheap, super light, and really easy to put on/take off over layers and crampons.

The downside is that it isn't recommended for general climbing/belaying since there is no belay loop, so it is pretty much a mountaineering-only harness.
