Denali Update

Despite somewhat sunny skies here in Talkeetna, base camp is socked in with fog so D'Alessio's 5/20 team was not able to fly out nor was Bunch's 6/3 team able to fly in yesterday.

Kahiltna Base Camp becomes an international city climbers from around the world with several languages being spoken. If it snows a lot then everybody there has to get out and pack the runway; a task people are more than happy to do!

There are over 100 people waiting to fly out! Here's some pictures from a couple years ago when I had to do some waiting and runway packing. ~blogger laura

Lots of people waiting to fly out.

Packing the runway...a very important task!
