Yesterday our team made a carry to 17 Camp. Leaving early, we avoided the crowds and enjoyed one of the more beautiful days the Buttress could serve up. Spectacular views from the Kahiltna to the tundra kept us company all day long and we really got a great sense of our surroundings.
Now we are all set to capitalize on the next weather window and move up! Until then the team is enjoying a well earned rest day here at 14 Camp.
