Day three is in the books for the 2016 JanSport Climb. The Emmons Team crushed it this morning summiting, in as Lead Guide Luke Reilly said, “damn near perfect conditionsâ€. They’ve since made it back to Camp Schurman where they’ll rest, relax, eat, sleep, etc. until tomorrow morning.
And just 1.5 miles away (as the crow flies) is the DC Team who is poised for their own summit attempt tonight. Conditions remain near perfect. If all goes as planned they’ll summit tomorrow morning and both teams will return to IMG tomorrow afternoon to celebrate!
We won’t crack the beers just yet, there’s still plenty of work to do!
