Mt. McKinley: Jones & Team Hope for a Good Weather Window
June 18, 2014 - 12:24am PT
Today we got some news that a window may come our way in the next few days! We woke with the sun warming us. Granola and coffee got our day started at 14k camp. We saw fairly good weather throughout the day, yet a forecast for another big pulse of heavy snow for the near hours! Our equipment, attitudes, and stoke for the future are high and our methods of getting there are well calculated.
We wait another day hanging in there for the final push up the mountain. This season has not given many opportunities for a summit push but if we try and give it our whole effort we may just succeed! Tomorrow we will make our final preparation to stay or plan our departure Keep your eye on us and think high pressure weather.
Cheers,
RMI Guides Garrett, Tyler, Geoff and the No Troubles Team

Glad to hear the positive spirits in camp. Hang in there team. The mountain doesn’t give up her summit easily but it will be worth the trip. Best of luck to you all and we’re all praying for good weather.
