AAI lead guide Quino Gonzalez called in late last night to report on Team 4 at Camp 1 on Denali.

During the day Team 4 cached some food and fuel on the way up to Camp 2. It was a beautiful day, the weather was a little overcast with light snow in the evening. So far the weather has been good enough for Team 4 to move around. They were back at Camp 1 eating dinner when our AAI office received their call.

The plan for tomorrow (5/26) is to move up to Camp 2, assuming the weather continues to cooperate. Everyone is well and in good spirits.
