Climber's at 12,000 feet of Denali's West Buttress route.
Christian (aka "Marchy") called in from Kahiltna Pass at 9700'. Cell reception is really good due to the clear weather. Today the group is picking up their cache as they move to 11,200' camp; a little behind on schedule due to the weather days at the beginning but nothing significant. Everyone is doing great and really strong. They're enjoying the day and celebrating Chris Wood's 21st birthday! What a great way to do it Chris!
A few messages:
Big shout out to everyone at AMH!
Much love to the brunette beauty!
And the newest verse from Marchy...
"From Haites to heaven
8 Souls take their ride
Sure enough, climb with
in that they take pride"
If the weather stays good tomorrow they'll be moving to Windy Corner at 13,500'.
Good luck guys!
