Conditions on the mountain remain the same as they’ve been the past few days, and all teams remain in place. However, there’s good weather in the near future!
Teams 1 and 2 are looking toward later this week for possible summit windows as a temporary ridging weather pattern crosses over southern Alaska. With their gear already cached near high camp, the teams are able to quickly mobilize and move to 17 camp for an attempt on the summit.
This same pattern should allow Teams 3 and 4 to ascend further, and continue their progress up the mountain.
Here’s to wishing them good luck and good weather!
