Mike Balster called in with the following update from 11,200 feet. You'll notice that he mentions that it was hot on the glacier today. That's not something commonly equated to Denali climbing, but is a very real challenge. When the sun is out and there is no wind, the heat can be almost debilitating. To mitigate against this, we get up early in the morning and try to get up the steeper (more strenuous) sections before the sun hits us.
