Hello again everyone!

The team had a good night’s rest last night and today was just a short 3hr hike up to 15’000ft to our high camp. It started out sunny, but then quickly clouded up thankfully making for great hiking temperatures. The Equatorial sun at this elevation is quite intense, a little break was needed. 

The team has just wrapped up lunch and discussed in great detail the plan for tomorrow’s climb. Everyone knows what we’ll be wearing, what will be in the pack, as well as the schedule. 

Our game plan will be to wake at 10:30pm and have a quick breakfast at 11, then hopefully hit the trail right around 11:30pm. The team has been doing great thus far and I’m expecting us to reach the summit in 7 to 8hrs if things go according to plan. 

As per usual on a Casey climb, one lucky trivia winner will get a phone call from the summit. 

So, everyone back home please keep your phones handy and if you receive a call from a strange number please answer. We are 8+hrs ahead of the east coast time zone. 

Wish us luck!
