The May 30th Team made the two hour drive north to the small, end of the road (literally!) town of Talkeetna Alaska.  They finished their registration process with the National Park Service and attended an NPS orientation on the challenges of climbing Denali, before making their way to the airstrip to board a ski equipped Islander aircraft for the 35 minute flight to the Alaska Range!

Tonight they will sleep on the Southeast Fork of the Kahiltna Glacier, at about 7,800′.  The weather was perfect and should make for some amazing photos from this unforgettable flight.
