The ground blizzard let up, but the cold temps persisted throughout the afternoon (Patrick Mauro)
The Denali Prep Seminar has been making the most of the winter conditions this week at Camp Muir. Yesterday morning they trained in a ground blizzard before moving into the Gombu to work on haul systems used in crevasse rescue.

They’ll head down to Paradise in the morning, just in time to miss a storm that is expected to bring heavy snow to the mountain this weekend. Good news for the next two seminars!
Still time to sign up for the last one of the season April 27 – May 3!
