Warm, dry fed and hydrated at 17k camp
Sean tells me the group powered up from 14k, taking 8 1/2 hours to move about 3,000 feet up Denali. The move is a big day so today the group is laying low, conserving energy in preparation for summit day. Life at 17k isn't always comfortable, but now the team just needs to keep up the nutrition and get rested and, most importantly, get a good enough weather window for their shot at the summit.
