It’s Ty calling for his team, May 20th — June 9, Day 20, from high camp at 17,200 feet (5,243 meters) on Denali. No summit window opened during the team’s allotted time, but two determined climbers are staying behind with Ty to make a summit attempt. A high-pressure system is finally moving in, and conditions are looking promising.
The route ahead climbs the Autobahn to Denali Pass at 18,200 feet (5,547 meters), traverses the Football Field, then ascends Pig Hill before the final ridge to the summit at 20,310 feet (6,190 meters). Winds have dropped, visibility is improving, and spirits are high.
