Mt. McKinley: Haugen & Team - A Good Day on the Mountain

June 14, 2014 - 10:21 pm PT Our intentions to get up early and head to 10,000' to cache some gear were thwarted by high winds and blowing snow. Every time we woke up to check the weather it seemed to be worse. By 10:30 this morning we were about to concede to Mother Nature and call it a weather day when the winds began to die and the sun started to peak through the clouds. We hopped into action and got our gear ready for a trip up higher. We worked most of the rest of the day to haul our packs and sleds up Ski Hill and beyond. We gained around 2,300' with heavy loads, dug a hole, threw in some gear, buried it, and headed down hill for our camp and quesadillas. Time for some sleep so we can get up early and head up to 9,600' to make a new camp. RMI Guide Mike Haugen and Team "The Ocho"

Bruce:
I was just checking our standings for BOEING ON THE MOVE. We suck. We are 3062 out of all the teams. Not sure how many more teams are behind us. Probably 1 or two. And your activity is next to last on our team. I’m kicking your butt. So please stop lounging around the pool, waiting for the umbrella drinks and get moving. ;)
