Guide Rob Caldwell called in an update on Team Big Knots, weathering the storm at Camp Three at 14,200′. The team was not able to move today due to weather, so they kept busy with drills to practice putting on all of their cold weather gear with crampons on–which is much tougher than it sounds, especially in the midst of a snow storm. Otherwise not much to report from the team; the forecast is calling for quite a bit of snow to fall over the Alaska Range, so they might be settling in for an extended stay at 14-Camp.
Here’s Rob!
