Denali Expedition: Smith & Team Take Rest Day at 17,000’ Camp
Tuesday, June 18, 2024 - 9:20 am PT
Good evening readers,
Today was a beautiful day for a summit bid, but sometimes beautiful weather isn't enough. Due to some logistics of one climber needing to descend to lower elevation, the team took a rest day at 17,000' Camp. All climbers are doing well and their bodies are adjusting to the altitude. Tomorrow, the two guides who went down with the climber will rejoin the team to try for the summit on Wednesday. The weather seems to be holding. Fingers crossed the winds stay at bay and we can pull this off. Keep sending all the calm winds, good weather, healthy bodies vibes our way!
Goodnight all,
RMI Guide Hannah Smith and Team
