Denali Expedition: Haugen & Team Waiting out the Weather
Posted by: Mike Haugen, Hannah McGowan, Gloria Roe
Categories: Expedition Dispatches Denali
Elevation: 9,600'
If you were wondering what kind of scenery you can see while climbing Denali, don't ask us because we haven't seen anything in days! We are living in a giant ping pong ball where white snow meets white clouds.
We high fived Tyler Jones's RMI team as they made their way down through the muck headed towards Basecamp.
All we need is a short break in the weather and a small assurance that the next camp will not be any worse than here. We are hoping that tomorrow morning gives us what we need.
The team really is in good spirits considering the amount of tent time that has been logged during this storm and we are not even really on the mountain yet! There has been nothing but positivity and hard work from our Super Crew. So proud!

Here’s to Super Team 6: praying that the weather has been kind and allowed you to go on today! So glad to hear you’re staying warm, working out still, some way or another, and able to catch up on your books Cody! You are prayed for daily. Miss you. Btw…its 84° here today. For some odd reason, the snow and colder temp sounds good. Lol. Love ya, Mom
