Moving to Camp 2 11,000 ft

First of all, apologies for no posts on this expedition.  I did type a dispatch for these guys, but it never posted on the online blog.  

They are doing great, and are a strong team.  They flew on on the 26th as scheduled, moved up to camp 1, carried to 10,500, and are moving on up to camp 2 at 11,000 ft today.   I hope to get a call from their team tonight, and will update with details if they call.   They may be a bit tired and busy tonight and wait to call till tomorrow.

Dave,

I had some quality suffering at Eagle Lake, but just the hands though. Hope you your getting your fair share of suffering up on the Mtn. Bob says "kick ass and take names"

Jen is disapointed that you guys are are not moving faster apparently you guys are not living up to her expectations. All I have to say is it is Saturday and the temp is 78 degrees and the Beer is just to cold. I guess I will have to adjust the setting on the beer cooler. ahhh refreshing, how does that melted snow taste. I am sure it is better than the cold beer we are forcing ourselves to consume. It is a good thing they finally posted an update, Jen was looking up the phone number for Denali Search and Rescue. Keep up the good work, I am looking forward to hearing all of the stories and looking at the pictures when you return. I think Jen is just looking for a reason to have a party. oh yeah she doesn't need a reason.
