RMI Guide Eric Frank calls in from Balcony Camp.
I am glad to see that our prayers cleared the weather for you. May God be with you all during your climb. I can not wait until I am able to climb this mountain sometime in the next couple of years or so.
Thanks

Kim- it’s me again- just wanted to give you a heads up that dad has been waiting for you on the summit- so act totally surprised when you see him- he brought a stuffed colobus monkey with him so you won’t be able to miss him!
Xoxoxo

Mike, can’t help but follow your teams adventures with prose like that! Climb strong.

It was an epic adventure. Thank you to Billy and team. You guys were amazing. Bridget was amazing to carry another team members backpack plus her own and all of you doing back to back trips to make this possible. This was a lot of work to get prepared for, but would not have been possible without your expertise!!! I am proud to say we went with RMI. A team of truly talented and amazing people. Here are some pics from the summit, plus some from the two trips Peter and I took to Camp Muir in February and May: http://www.mcsheehy.com/Places/United-States/Washington/Mt-Rainier/

Looks like an awesome time. Sure does look different from the bottom of the mountain to what you are seeing.

A huge congrats to you and the team, Ken. You are a man of your word—you said you were going to do Denali and you did—all the way to the top—20,320 feet—WOW! A colossal achievement. Cheers to you and the team from hapless Hollis.
