It was a cold, windy day on the upper mountain but the team was able to move to High Camp at 17,200′. They retraced their steps up the Headwall, made their way carefully along the beautiful ridgeline above the Genet basin, passed their cache site, and arrived at High Camp. It’s definitely some of the more interesting climbing on the route and the views are stunning.

Tonight the team will be eating, hydrating, and preparing for a summit attempt tomorrow. Good luck, team!
