Mt. McKinley: Walter & Team at 14,000’
Hello everyone from the 14,000' camp on Denali. We're taking a rest day today, in order to acclimate and get strong for our forays up higher on the mountain.
After a breakfast involving lots of coffee and the universal favorite--bacon, we spent some time finishing off our snow walls at camp. The rest of the day was spent preparing gear for caching up high on the mountain tomorrow, as well as lounging around, reading, and eating.
We're planning to carry supplies up high on the West Buttress tomorrow, in preparation for our move to high camp and subsequent summit bid. We'll be in touch again soon.

Hi, Mike Mauseth! Isn’t technology grand, being able to communicate from such a remote place! Go Mike! Just thought I’d let you know I’m taking good care of your new baby dog. She is very smart, active, and truly needs the lifestyle you will provide for her. She is looking forward to her forever home and getting the amount of attention she deserves. You be safe since there’s one more girl waiting for your return. You can do this!
