Everything is well, we all made it onto the glacier on the southeast fork of the Kahiltna. We’re finally all back together. Everyone is super excited to reunite after 30 hours of being separated with some of us still in Talkeetna and others on the Kahiltna glacier and trying to figure out what was going to happen next. But things are going well here, we had some dinner, we’re hanging out in our camp, and are getting ready to take off. Our plan, if the weather allows, will be to leave from camp late in the evening tonight/ early morning and walk up to our first camp at 7,800’ on the main Kahiltna. Hope all is well there, everything is great here.
Everyone is super excited to be here. It looks like we have a forecast in the future to be really nice for us. Talk to you guys soon.
Cheers!
