Aaron Mainer called in from +/- 6500ft on Mt. Rainier, where he and our Denali Prep Seminar team are camped, to report exactly what the forecast called (and is calling) for: bad weather.
Yesterday’s anticipated weather window closed quicker than expected forcing the team to hang down low, instead of heading up to Camp Muir. They put their time to good use by building some big wind walls around their tents in anticipation of the incoming weather. Today they learned about anchor systems.
That’s the beauty of these seminars – good weather or bad, there are plenty of opportunities to learn!
