Yesterday the team packed up at Camp 1 at 7,800′ (2377m). They began their day by moving first up Ski Hill which rises 1,200′ from Camp 1. Once atop Ski Hill, the team navigated through rolling terrain as they approached Kahiltna Pass. They made camp before Camp 2 at below 11,000′ (3352m). Digging into the snow they created their tent platforms, latrine, and camp kitchen. After whipping up a tasty dinner, proceeded by some soup and hot drinks and topped off with a desert, the team tucked in for the night.
