Heres today's call, they are back at Camp 1 for the night after carrying a load of gear up towards camp 2. This strategy allows them to get all of the food, fuel and gear that is required to spend 2-3 weeks on Denali up there, and gives them a chance to acclimate by climbing high and sleeping low.
Anyhow, it sounds like Melanie got creative with the call tonight so enjoy...
Love, love the poem Melanie and team! Good to hear all is well and skiing has got to be spectacular! Stay warm and powdered up!
ReplyDeleteGot to love the spirit, lugging everything twice to make a camp at 14000 feet. They are really energetic mountain men and women. Hope you can keep the heat from the bottom levels bundled up inside till you head back from the summit. Hey Melanie how is the vegetarian diet working on the mountain, any white pizza? Keep safe and finish the job!
ReplyDeleteThat is Melanie's Father said, because he is using Mel's computer.
ReplyDeleteGreat Poem Mel!! Keep up the good work. Hugs to you and the team. Love Mom
