Ed Leas’ team is sitting at 17,000 feet waiting for a good spell to summit in. They have a good supply of food and fuel and are well fortified, just waiting on a clear day!
Andy Polloczek’s team is at 11,000 feet, waiting to move up to 14,000 as conditions allow. All are well and they carried the bulk of their supplies up to 13,700 on Saturday. They will move to 14, then drop down the next day to pick up their cache.
Austin Shannon’s team is doing their briefing with the NPS today, and as conditions allow, flying onto the mountain as soon as possible. They have gone through their gear checks, review of group supplies and food and will be ready to go.
