Mountain Trip lead guide Brian Kramp called in a final update on Shan’s May 28 Denali West Buttress Expedition, who have left the Alaska Range and have returned to Anchorage to go their separate ways.

While the team unfortunately did not make the summit due to poor weather, we would still likely to extend our congratulations to them for enduring the extreme elements of the mountain and showing good judgement in turning back.

Here’s Brian!
