Mat called at 8:00 pm on June 23rd with this dispatch:

“Hi! This is Mat calling from Team 7, and I think our new name is Team Slowly Behind Schedule. Today we cached at 16,200 feet, right above the fixed lines. Yesterday, we did a back-carry (sorry we didn’t call). That means tomorrow is a rest day! We plan to eat greasy sausages and hashbrowns. The Team is doing really well. So far so good. Talk to you later.”
