Carried to 13,500 ft today, up Motorcycle Hill, Squirrel Hill and Windy Corner. No squirrel or motorbikes spotted and barring certain team members there was little wind to note. Some good exposure with good views of Peters Glacier and out to the Tundra. Piled down at a fast pace as temperatures started to get really hot. Number of parties going up slowly looking like they weren’t enjoying the experience. A typical Denali day with crazy weather, -5C at 9am, sweltering at the end. Back at camp we watched Davenport and team ski some extreme lines
