Mt. McKinley: Walter & Team Settle into 14,000’ Camp

We woke this morning to pretty robust winds at our 14,000' camp. After breakfast and hot drinks we headed back down to retrieve the cache we left a few days ago at Windy Corner (13,700'). The winds subsided and we had a busy day between the back-carry, building stout walls for our camp, and digging out a kitchen tent. Everyone worked hard today and is doing well with the altitude. The weather forecast is calling for some pretty strong winds for tomorrow, so we're just planning on resting until conditions improve and we can put a cache in up high. Hopefully the winds will subside sooner rather than later. That's it for now. We'll check in again tomorrow. RMI Guide Mike Walter and Team

Hope those winds give you a break soon.  Every message is coming through, but I don’t think you’re getting any of my replies. Wondering about future weather forecast sharing…

Stay safe, mind the blue stuff, and keep having fun!!

Steve and Team,

Glad to hear you were as to move despite the winds. Hope things settle soon so you can keep moving. Waiting is never fun at any elevation.

Hike well and be safe.

Dad
