"This is Aidan with Denali Team 2. It is Day 7 for us, and it is May 18th which is a Monday.

We are sitting at Camp 2 at 11,000 ft.

Today we cached around Windy Corner just over 13,000ft, in ideal conditions. It was a little windy at the corner, actually it was windy all day but you know, it's a mountain.

But the day went really well and everyone did great.

We got to observe a crevasse fall from a distance on another team today which is always exciting. We thought we might be able to help with a rescue but the team had it well in hand.

Tomorrow we should be able to make it to 14 Camp if the forecast holds.

Everyone seems to be in good spirits and that's it for now. Adios."
