The June 7 private expedition made the move from Camp 1 (9,600 ft / 2,926 m) to Camp 2 (11,200 ft / 3,414 m) today with a single carry — covering the mellow but steady gain along the upper Kahiltna Glacier under clear skies.
After settling in and having an early dinner, the guides carried the clients’ personal gear higher on the route, stashing a cache up and around Windy Corner to prepare for the days ahead. The clients remained at camp, enjoying a full rest and acclimatization day.
It might have been a little too much food for a non-moving day — which, of course, is part of the rhythm of expedition life on Denali. Spirits are high and the team is positioned well for the climb to continue.
