This is our last dispatch for the June 15 West Buttress Denali Ski team. The team has arrived back in civilization and everyone is doing well. They accomplished a pretty impressive ski descent, first from the summit at 20,310′ (6190m) to High Camp at 17,200′ (5242m). Then they descended through the Rescue Gully down to Camp 3 at 14,200′ (4328m) and all the way down to Basecamp at 7,200′ (2194m). Guides Aaron and Brian want to offer a congratulations to Edward, Will, and John, and we do too! Good work team!
Here’s Aaron:
