Denali Team 3: May 23 – June 12, 2010

Guides: Angela Seidling, Alaina Robertson

Climbers: Paul Rose, Joan Clofent, Paul Watkins, Carol Masheter, Simon Boaz, Bob Sullivan

Lead Guide Angela Seidling called at 1:30pm on Wednesday, June 2nd:

“Today we took another rest day at 14 Camp. We’re just waiting for a good weather window to move up to 17,000 ft. Hence, we slept in today, and ate a good, late breakfast.

Everybody was playing a card game called “Golf” which Simon taught us.  And, can you believe this? There was also a big game of Frisbee thanks to Bob, who brought a Frisbee!

Here are some Shout Outs to our friends and family:

Carol: To my friends and sister “AAAAAHHHOOOOOOOOO!!!” (That’s a big howl!)

Simon: To Helen Keller, Dual, and Yonkie: Thinking of you!

Alaina: To Kelly, I send my love.

Bob: “I’m missing the sound of the cork popping off of red truck with the Hardys!”

Everyone from the group says….

Thanks so much for all the Shout Backs!  We have received them all.  It’s all fun and games up here until the summit!

Here are some notes on the comments previously posted on the dispatch:

The people who went up to the cache were Carol, John, Paul Watkins, Bob and me (Angela). All others went on the acclimatization hike yesterday.”
