14,200 ft Camp 3

They moved on up to Camp 3 at 14,200 ft yesterday. Zach isn't yet 100% but feeling better ( he must be doing alright to get on up to C3 ). Everyone else is doing great, and that extra day at Camp 2 is paying off as they were all well acclimated and feelig good when they moved up to the new altitude. The views continue to get more stunning the further up the mountain they climb, but C3 is a particularly beautiful spot with great views out across the Alaska Range as they have climbed above most of the other peaks in the neighborhood. Today they have a relatively easy day, they'll sleep in a bit and go back down to retrieve the cache they left at 13,500 a couple of days ago.
