Climb coordinator Connie George reports that the winds on the West Face were fierce today, nearly blowing climbers off their feet. Misery Hill is usually the windy spot on this route, but today the West Face really challenged the team.
The team should sleep well tonight at Hidden Valley base camp -- they've earned a good rest! Tonight friends and family in Shasta are invited to join us for a celebratory sign-making party at Shasta Mountain Resort, and tomorrow we'll cheer the team off the mountain at around noon.
all of us here at Ibex are so excited and proud of you all.
Amy you rock, can't wait to hear the details of this fantastic adventure. Have fun in SF.
