Mountain rumors- at 17k!

No call from Dave Ahrens today, but the word came through the Mountain Trip radio network that the group moved to high camp today. The move to 17 is a big day and can also involve hours of camp building once camp is reached, so it is not uncommon for an expedition to skip the call to the MT office in place of getting everyone fed and into their sleeping bags. 17k isn't as friendly of a camp as the ones at lower elevations, so the group left the kitchen tent at 14 camp in favor of cooking in the vestibule of the tent and serving hot meals to the other team members sitting warm and dry in their sleeping bags. If the group was lucky enough to have good visibility, the views out of camp of Mt. Foraker and Mt. Hunter, Kahiltna Dome and the Kahiltna peaks as well as all the other unnamed mountains in the area is breathtaking.
