Hi this Quino from Denali Team 5. We are at Camp 3 (14,200ft). Today we retrieved our cache from 13,500ft. Good weather and no wind. Tomorrow we will cache above the fixed lines if we are feeling strong. We are pleased with our progress so far, but know that it's a big step up for what's in front of us. Hopefully, the weather will hold and provide us an opportunity soon. That's all for now and we will keep you posted.
