Elevation: 11,000'

Early this morning we broke down camp under perfect conditions! The team climbed remarkably strong and we made great time up to our Camp III at 11,000'. We arrived in mid morning to avoid traveling while in the heat of solar rays and overheating our engines.
The crew then built camp in short order now we’re settling in for a mid day siesta. We’re strong, happy and stoked with our performance.
Tonight we will have a feast of Annie’s Mac and cheese, then we will try to be up before the sun hits us in the morning for a short back carry to retrieve yesterday’s load of groceries, fuel, and personal luggage. That’s all for now from our new camp and currently the rest and hydration station.
Cheers,
RMI Guides Tyler Jones, Brian Mazaika, and Nick Scott
