Denali Team 2, Day 10:

Today we woke to bluebird skies. A welcome relief to the cold night before. Today we managed to retrieve all supplies from our cache back to Camp 3 at 14,000'. Here we will remain until launching our siege higher on the mountain. Tomorrow we will have a rest day and practice fixed line ascension for the climb ahead. Team 2, over and out.

Daniel—
Enjoy a day off today. You might consider mountain biking down "The Edge of the World" if you get too bored. Just some food for thought…
(I ride a Specialized that's parked in close proximity to another Specialized, a Cannondale and a Windsor).
