Guide Paul Ivaska called in at 1:30 on Wednesday. The team is still at high camp. There was a large amount of evident snow transport that signified strong winds, so the team made the decision to stay an extra day at high camp. The plan at this point is to wait for a clearing in the weather to make a push for the summit.
