The team all met for the first time on Sunday in Anchorage. The guides have been packing food and getting the equipment together for several days, and are as excited as anyone to get the show on the road, and begin the climbing. Nobody lost any baggage on the flights to Alaska, so they are off to a good start.
The crew flew in during another beautiful day in Alaska yesterday(monday). They got up this morning and started the hard work of hauling all of the food, fuel, tents, climbing gear, clothes, books, and iPods for 21 days up the glacier. The first day is the heaviest of the whole trip, as they move up the mountain from Camp 1 they'll begin to carry loads in 2 trips to move up to the higher camps.
