| Balmy at 19,300 Feet Team 5: 19,300 - Thursday, June 13, 2002 » Back to DISPATCHES
Hey cyberland, this is Dave Bangert with team Das Boots. It's 2:30 in the afternoon and we are enjoying balmy conditions at 19,300 feet.
Our next little scheduled break will be at the Football Field, then we'll hit Pig Hill, then we traverse the summit ridge and summit.
Everyone's doing fine, we've got a beautiful day. Eric Larson's group is joining us on the ascent so it's quite a little pleasant outing. We're very, very lucky.
But everyone's doing fine and I'm probably going to have everyone give a hello when we get up to the summit ridge and then I'll give another call from the summit. So wish us well and we'll talk to you soon. Bye. Dave Bangert, Alpine Ascents International Guide and MountainZone.com Correspondent |
