IMG Denali Team 2 led by Riley Gilson (Team Gilson) has landed in Anchorage this morning and is commencing their gear check this afternoon. That team will be on the heels of Team Dale and (fingers crossed) flying onto the Kahiltna in the coming days.
IMG Denali Team 3 led by Justin Sackett (Team Sackett) is not far behind. The team will be meeting in Anchorage on Sunday!
