Denali Team 4 - Dispatch #3
Denali Team 4: May 30 - June 19, 2010
Guides: Dylan Taylor, Jeremy Ellison, Tom Kirby
Climbers: Paul Hameister (Black Rock, Australia), Martin Perry (Melbourne, Australia), Tim Myall (Witney, England), Andy Sweet (San Marcos, California), Brian Plaugher (Guerneville, California), Jay Jackson (Reading, Pennsylvania), Dimitri Nichiporov (Bloomington, Indiana), Respicius Baitwa (Moshi, Tanzania), and Siggi Soleyjarson (Gardabae, Iceland).
Lead guide Dylan Taylor called and left the following dispatch at 9:19 pm, Pacific time on Wednesday, June 3rd
Hey guys it’s Dylan calling for the dispatch. We’re calling from 8,000 feet on Denali. All is well this evening. We are nestled up in our tents. The guys are eating jelly bellies and watching The Big Lebowski. Here are some messages I’ll pass along:
Bryan says, “Have a spectacular workout on my birthday, thanks for the card Pam.”
Andy says, “ To Maureen, my wife. Waiting to se you. Love you wish you were here.”
Jay (this message was hard to hear because of the sat phone static)
Siggi
Marty says, “Chris Jack Bill and Hugo, miss you guys!”.
Everyone is strong, it’s pretty hot in the afternoon and freezing in the night. Food is good, views are great. Awesome avalanches in the northeast fork. Talk to you guys tomorrow.
