Denali Expedition: Hahn & Team Have Hopes Squashed by Weather

June 18, 2023

Elevation: 7,800'

It was snowing again at 4 AM when we hoped to get up for climbing. We checked it repeatedly in the following hours but didn't feel good about what we saw.

Eventually, the snow quit, but by then we'd have been pushing up three hours of hill in the hottest part of the day. We decided to call it a rest day instead.

It ended up sunny and hot in the tents and we napped, read and snacked our way through the day. We'll try again tomorrow.
