Doing Great!

The team is moving along right on schedule.   They spent their first day at basecamp going over glacier travel and crevasse skills, and launched up the glacier on the following day.   They moved to camp one, about 5 miles up the Kahiltna glacier in one push with all of their equipment and supplies for the next 20 or so days.  They don't gain much altitude, but these are the biggest loads that they will carry for the whole trip.  

Today they are moving up to the next camp at 11,000 feet.
