Mt. McKinley: Mike Walter & Team Resting at 14 Camp
Posted by: Mike Walter | June 25, 2012
Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Mount McKinley
Elevation: 14,200'
After a nice evening of sunshine, we awoke again today to light snow and wind, and very limited visibility. Again, this is fine with us as we could use another rest day before moving to high camp at over 17,000’. The weather forecast this morning indicated that we may see some significant snow tomorrow, before this system moves out later in the week.
We’re all enjoying some down time, but we are eager to climb higher also. Patience is paramount as we sit in this holding pattern. We’ll keep you posted with our progress with regular updates. If anybody out there can pull some strings and hook us up with perfect, sunny and warm weather for our summit bid, we’ll buy you a beer when we get back to civilization!
Cheers,
RMI Guide Mike Walter
