Mt. McKinley: Haugen and Team Establish Camp 2

June 14, 2015 10:58 pm Hi friends and family! Team Haugen continues to make strong moves up here. Today we got a bright and early start, broke camp, and made short work of Ski Hill en route to Camp 2 at 9,600 feet. Upon arrival, the boys of "El Siete" enthusiastically dug what may be the burliest camp ever to grace the slopes of Denali, then harvested the fruits of their labor by way of a long half day of relaxing, napping, and eating truly preposterous quantities of Mac and cheese. We're all excited for a move up to 11 camp tomorrow. And now, for the more literary inclined followers, please enjoy a summary of the day's exploits in haiku: Bright and early start, Solid work on frozen slopes, Camp 2 chilling, FUN!

Michael!

Your postcard was perfect. I’m so happy you have a poet to keep you entertained during those snowy and chilly nights.  AB and I will be here when you get back.

Safe travels. Love you.

Hope that Matt Krull isn’t slowing you guys down. Give him a little coffee and he’ll perk right up. Matt, we’re missing you at the office, but love living your experience vicariously through the blog while improving our golf game and getting a tan.
