After a spectacular summit with amazing views Team Attitude 62 began their descent

 

Hello, Reagan from Team Attitude 62 calling in again for Willie and Danny.

As I believe you know, we had a great summit day yesterday, so our Team name paid off.  Denali may be in a national park, but this is not a walk in the park, but this is not a walk in the park, so it’s kind of tough, but it was spectacular at the summit.  We had an incredibly clear day, and the Alaskan mountains that we had been looking up at and sideways to at all of our prior camps, was well below us. It was clear, it was beautiful, so the mountain has been good to us and we appreciate her generosity.

We are at 14 Camp, we moved all our stuff down and the plan is to head out tonight (again, the mountain willing) and then we will be at Base Camp tomorrow and hopefully fly back to Talkeetna.  We had a wonderful time, the Team is amazing. I think we’re all very fortunate to have the different Team Members, we can’t wait to see our family and friends, we love you all and we’ll see you soon, bye.

  • Denali ’24 in a Nutshell

    Submission by Jess, Alaska Operations. When I touched down in Talkeetna this year, greeted by sunny skies and perfect weather, I couldn’t help but feel hopeful for a smoother forecast for Denali climbing season compared to the previous year’s relentlessly poor weather. Julia was clearly on the same wavelength because just a few weeks before, […]
