Aug. 31-Sept.5th 6-day Course doing great!

The 6-day course checked in yesterday evening. The team had just returned from a long and successful summit day. It included a fairly circuitous route given the late season nature of the glacier but they found a way through and were rewarded with a summit! The team has had a great week with some wild stormy weather followed by beautiful high pressure and sunshine. They've spent the week learning lots of skills and putting them to use on reaching the summit. Today they head back down to the trail head and will enjoy a meal before returning to Seattle this afternoon.
