Denali Expedition: Walter & Team Wait out the Storm

May 28, 2017

Elevation: 14,200'

May 28, 2017 Today is very stormy on Denali. Poor visibility, gusty winds and cold temps keep us in our tents today. This morning we had a great joint breakfast with the RMI #2 team's guides and climbers. Other than that, not much new to report. Camp is quiet as no one is venturing out in this weather. There hasn't been a summit in nearly two weeks, and only a few teams have ventured up to high camp (17,200', where we cached 12 days ago), and most of those that have returned with frostbite. It has been cold and windy for a while now. It has to change, right? It's coming down to the wire for our team as our food supply dwindles. We still have hope though... RMI Guide Mike Walter
