June 10th West Buttress Denali Expedition – Cached on 16-Ridge

Lead Guide Jordan called in from the June 10th Team to report that they had a stellar day cacheing on the 16,000′ Ridge between Camp 3 and High Camp, taking it all the way to Washburn’s Thumb before leaving their cache. 

Hear it from Jordan himself: Audio Recording

As Jordan put it, his team of climbers Emma and Sam are “naturals in the mountains” and it seems like they are doing great so far on this expedition. They scarfed down a second round of pizzas for dinner and plan to take a rest day tomorrow. Nice work team! 

16-Ridge, in all its glory.
