I talked to Kevin (Lead Guide) last night, and they were all doing great at the 11,000 ft camp.   Yesterday they went down to 10,500 feet for the cache that they had left there 2 days earlier.  Kevin said that the wind was pretty intense, and made for a challenging day.  It is a very short day, only 30 minutes down, and about 2 hours back up to camp, but the wind made for an interesting day.


The forecast is for some pretty strong winds at that altitude throughout today, so they will probably not be able to make their next carry up to 13,500 feet until the weather settles down.  They are in good company in camp right now, with 3 other Mountain Trip groups waiting out the weather with them.
