Mt. McKinley: Nugent & Team Move to High Camp, Ready for Summit Bid

June 24, 2014 – 7:51 pm PT Hey it’s Billy and team calling in from High Camp here at over 17,000’ on Denali. Our crew moved up today from the 14,000' Camp. We enjoyed a nice walk and good temps up on the West Buttress, made our way up the ridge line in and out of the clouds all day. And as we were building camp at 17,000’ the clouds parted. We are enjoying blue skies and relatively calm winds. If it looks anything like this tomorrow morning we are going to try and take a crack at the summit. So, wish us luck and we will check in tomorrow, go or no go. Alright, that is all for now. RMI Guide Billy Nugent

Hey Bruce and Michael. Good luck on your final ascent to the summit. I hope you have great weather for the vista at the top. Wave those Duke flags once again, and take plenty of pics! JBF/Mom

Eric: I wish you success, great weather and the strenght to lift up your head and soak in every minute of the up climb and down climb. Enjoy the entire journey. The summit is optional, your safe return is mandatory. U.P.
