11000′ K Camp with Mt. Foraker in the distance (Riley Gilson)<\/p><\/div>\n

Team 1, lead by Brad Swanson, is ascending to 11k Camp! This incredible landscape provides a beautiful view of Foraker’s summit on a clear day, as seen in the photo above.<\/p>\n

Team 2, led by Max Bond, is caching at 10k, and will be spending to night at Ski Hill. Caching is a process by which climbers ease long ascents by taking time to take a load of supplies (but not their full gear load) to a higher elevation, and then returning and taking a second trip with the rest of their gear to make a huge load more manageable. They also give their bodies time to acclimate to the higher elevation and slow their ascent. This means lighter loads on stronger bodies, which is a benefit in the extreme conditions of this beautiful mountain!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
