737 Leg 8 Denali - Day 199

Update for yesterday. Forecast still bad but we climbed to 16,200ft to top of the headwall to cache a load to be ready to move to 17,000ft camp and summit when we get a break in the weather. We climbed today in moderate conditions, low visibility and gusts. It was important for us to continue pushing when conditions allow. Now we will wait a lot. We have seen some teams coming down from 17,000ft camp battered by conditions without summiting. Patience and timing is everything.
