Update from Mt. Blackburn

Update from Mt. Blackburn

After three days of sitting in a tent, our team on Mt. Blackburn moved up through a white-out blizzard on Monday and were rewarded with sunny skies yesterday to continue their climb. Today is bluebird, so we are confident they are working hard towards the summit. Click below to hear their dispatch last night from their camp at 9,600feet.

And here’s what the mountain looks like from our office this morning. I’m sure it’s a magnificent day up there!
