Mt. McKinley: Upper West Rib Team Takes Another Snowy Rest Day

June 14, 2014 - 10:55 pm PT Well another day has come and gone, but Denali refuses to give us a decent weather window to climb.The team is all prepped to go, and we have had numerous conversations that will improve our efficiency and safety up high. At this point we are just keeping our fingers crossed and watching both the forecast and morning skies to decide when we will move upward. Thanks for following along. RMI Guides Eric Frank, Geoff Schellens and the UWR team

Eric——-I read your guide BIO , and saw that your were raised in Ohio. Being a Buckeye myself, I was wondering where you grew up?  ( this is from John’s Mom)

John- Your grandfather and Uncle Bruce send greetings your way, knowing that your 3P’s (preparation, patience and perseverance) will eventually pay off. We are all following these postings, so a big thank you to your fellow team members for keeping us informed.

Hey E Frank, Look forward to news in the next couple days!  Passed along your message so it made it!  Made a few pies and ate them in your honor today!  Best of luck!!

I am very appreciative of your patience and focus on safety!  I am sure that it has been frustrating to be waiting and waiting, with all of the skills and talent that it takes to reach the summit, and be totally dependent on things beyond your control.  WOW, it sounds a lot like FARMING, doesn’t it John???
Lots of love and prayers being sent northward and upward!!!
