Update Received: June 4, 2014. 7:07pm PST. Richard called in reporting from Camp 1. The team had a wonderful day with sunshine and perfect snow conditions. They placed their cache hight at 10,400' - about a 14 miles round trip hike from Camp 1. They are back at camp for the night and are enjoying hot drinks after their long day.
Every few days the AAI office staff relays the comments family, friends and fans leave here on the dispatch posts up to the guides and team members, so they can enjoy your messages from home. Tonight there are a few quips from team members in repose to those comments:

Way to go Team 5! Hope you enjoy a lot more sunny days and cinnamon rolls. Don't let Jim trick you into eating yours.

Go team Tocher. Thomas has named all the mountains he sees after you. Mount Joyce is a little smaller than mount nick and Mount Bruce, but mount Tom is huge!
