I had a number of correspondences with Vitaliy and his crew. They trained hard, prepared well, and thought about all the right questions. Hopefully the weather and conditions will cooperate and we will get to read one of their well written and documented trip reports.

Actually a few of them on the team: Shane Rathbun and Paul Garry (lefty) are also on the team. Sad I couldn't join them (damn work).

Thinking of them every day. :)

I really don't know Shane or Paul at all but Vitaliy has become quite accomplished with his climbing in a pretty short time span. Good wishes to all of them!!

Paul, Vitaliy, and Shane summited this grand mountain on Monday and are all back safe in Talkeetna.

Congratulations to all! I can't wait to hear of the adventure!
