Hey there! We just wanted to call in with a quick update - Teams 7 and 8 are down on the Kahiltna, and now we are just waiting for the weather to clear so we can get picked up. Everyone is safe and sound, and we hope to be back in Talkeetna soon!
Richard called back a little while later to add that everyone would like to send their condolences to the families of the Japanese climbers who were lost in the avalanche on Motorcycle Hill.

Hey guys!
Looking forward to seeing you all soon in Talkeetna. The beers are cold, the burgers huge, and the CMCs all flush, so don't fill up on freeze dried and melted water!
Good luck hurrying up and waiting!
