May 11 Denali Team at Camp 3 Practicing for the Fixed Lines

The team spent the day at Camp 3 practicing some skills they’ll need when they get the opportunity to climb higher on Denali.  Above them looms a pretty steep headwall of snow and ice where there is a fixed line for some additional security.  It takes some practice to be efficient on the fixed lines, ascending and descending, so the team practices before they head up there.   It sounds like everyone is in good spirits and eating well, and enjoying the company of their guide team.

Here’s the call.

  1. So good to hear Fred his voice and sounds like they are having a lot of fun. Keep up the good spirits and hopefully the weather at one point will be good enough to give them a change to summit!
