Guide Andrew Yasso called May 24th at 9:29pm PST with the following dispatch: Hi everybody back home this is Andrew Calling from high camp at 17,200 feet on Denali. We made our move to high camp today. I was able to catch back up to the team after doing some hitchhiking on the lower Kahiltna.
The weather was decent but then as we got onto the ridge it was kind of like we were inside a ping pong ball; a little bit of a white out. We’re in camp we’re settling in getting ready for a rest day tomorrow. We’ll probably check in again tomorrow. Depending on what the weather does we’ll be making our summit bid in the next few days here. We’ll keep you posted. Thanks for following us and we’ll look forward to hopefully giving you good news soon.
