Mt. McKinley: Nugent & Team Settled in at the Base of Ski Hill
Posted by: Billy Nugent | May 18, 2012
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Mount McKinley
Elevation: 7,800'
Whew. Heavy loads today! Despite the burden the crew enjoyed a second great day in the Alaska Range under blue skies and warm temperatures. Today’s walk was a long haul but the crew did great on our first physical portion of the expedition. We’ve settled into a new camp at the base of Ski Hill which is approximately 7,800’. Not much else to report other than tired legs and full bellies as we snug up for the night after a great meal.
Hasta mañana.

Brandi & Elizabeth, I wanted to send you a nice bottle of wine to congratulate you on your “little hike” As much as I searched i could not find a hotel listing for 7800 up Mt Mckinley, let alone the number for room service :-)
