Team Sackett flew onto the runway of the Kahiltna glacier yesterday. The team emptying the plane, filling their packs, and sleds with over 100#s of food, fuel, and personal supplies. Team Sackett has already made camp at Ski Hill, as they begin their journey.
Hard work today for team Gilson, caching supplies today at the 11,000′ camp. Wishing them luck with their plans to move up to Camp 3 tomorrow, pulling in behind team Dale.
Today team Dale is resting up for a big push, as they prepare to move up and around windy corner to camp at 14000′. looking forward to leaving their sleds behind, as they move higher and higher on the mountain.
Good Luck to all of our teams!
