Happy Independence Day - and Update from the Pika Glacier!

 6-Day Mountaineering Course led by Simon Frez-Albrecht, Nick Bakken, French, and Kiana Potter is doing very well. They are all settled in on the Pika Glacier and awoke to snow falling and worked in camp, building snow anchors and haul systems. The sun came out in the afternoon, and they trekked to a pass between peaks called the Troll and Throne. They are outside "grilling", celebrating the 4th of July!
