Mt. McKinley: Knoff & Team at High Camp Gearing Up for Summit Push
Sunday, May 31st 9:45 am PDT
Hi there. This is Adam Knoff calling from high camp on Mount McKinley. Yesterday we packed up on a beautiful day at 14,000' and moved to high camp at 17,200'. The team certainly decided that yesterday's move was physically the hardest day of the trip with heavy packs and moving to a new altitude record for a lot of our climbers. We are taking a rest day here at camp today in beautiful sunny weather as we watch a lot of climbers head up the mountain towards the summit. We will be organizing gear and getting ready for our summit attempt tomorrow. The team is feeling great and happy to be at high camp preparing for their shot at the top of North America tomorrow. Wish us well, can't wait to report back. We will talk to you tomorrow. Bye.

The Golden Stairs of the Chilkoot Pass was nothing like this!!! But it looks like the weather is in your favor. We will be waiting on pins and needles for tomorrow’s summit report!!!
