Team 6 called in from 11,000 feet at Camp 2 today. Yesterday, the team was able to place a cache in around Windy Corner in preparation for them to move to 14 Camp. Today they woke up to cold temperatures and windy conditions, so they spent the day “renovating” their camp. Listen in for some shoutouts (congrats Eliza!)
