Hello ALL mountaineers… Folks send their admiration.. Tim and Justin. Thinking of lots of questions to ask ...such as ...see any wildlife along the way?, see the aurora borealis lights? are you sunburn? This must be a life altering experience as you move upward toward the Arctic.
I am enjoying all of the updates. Many thanks!!

Hey Steve, Ashleigh, Mom and I took a walk at 10pm Tuesday night just to get out and see the full moon. Just like the movie “An American Tale” we were looking at the moon possibly when you and your group were. How cool. Keep your nose to the grindstone and you’ll succeed. Bye for now. Dad

Keep up the great work team!
Josh, Chopper and I miss you and can’t wait to hear all about your trip! Be safe and have fun on your next adventure up to 17k. Btw, thank you for the flowers, they are beautiful. Only you would pre-plan to have flowers delivered to me in the middle of our trip. I love you.
