Carrying Loads

They began the work of hauling and caching loads today (Wednesday). They took a pile of food and fuel and a few extra personal items up to about 10,200 ft today, dug a hole in the snow, and buried it to pick up in a couple of days. After caching their gear they returned to Camp 1, and tomorrow they'll move up to Camp 2 at 11,200 ft.

  1. Doug, sounds like you all are making progress! We are watching the basketball game between Lakers and Orlando Magic. They are currently in the 3rd Quarter and the score is 37-49 (Magic's leading right now). Of course, the Lakers are just warming up to the game...Stay tuned!
