AMS Teams Mountain Updates - June 6th

 The May 21 Expedition, led by Tyler Thompson, Madelyn Ferdock, and Will Plovanic, is now descending to the 14,200 camp and, if all goes as planned, will continue to Kahiltna Basecamp tonight. We may see them as soon as tomorrow! 

The May 25th Expedition, led by Cody Pitz, Nicole De Petris, and Joe Grout, is at 14,200' camp and is taking a well-deserved rest day today. They are prepped and ready to make the move higher when the weather allows. 

The May 30th Custom Expedition, led by Eric Roberts and Corey Cooke, is at 14,200' camp and is closely watching the weather to make a move to high camp at 17,200'. They are resting today and enjoying the sun at this camp.


The June 2nd Expedition, led by Guides Simon Frez-Albrecht, Taylor Guetschow, and Claire Pennell,  has moved to the 11,000-foot camp. They got up early to take advantage of the cool temperatures. They were warmly welcomed by the June 4th guides, Adam and Billy. 

June 4th Ski Expedition, led by Guides Adam Fabrikant and Billy Haas, with Chris, is doing great. They climbed up to 13,200 feet just before Windy Corner today for acclimatization. They skied back down to the 11,000-foot camp. They are planning to put a cache higher up tomorrow. 

Quote for the blog: from Chris this evening, "Please let the family know, he skied like Simba today." 

June 4th Expedition, led by Guides Porter Crockard and Cheyenne Chaffee, with Shanta, is doing well. They moved to 11,000 feet today as well and are well established and moving well, and feeling strong.
