We thought today would be our day... Until it wasn't. We woke up to blowing snow and zero visibility. It made our call easy once again. We thought that it would clear up later in the morning and give us a late try, but it has not cleared up all day. Oh well, we will wait!
The team is doing well with all of the waiting at high camp, in spite of being in tents most of the day. The weather has not been terrible at high camp, just not good enough to climb. So, more waiting, sport eating, and good weather finger crossing for us!

Don’t let the weather get you down! If you get cold, just think about me and I’m sure that will heat things up ;)!

Let’s just assume the mountain/weather is being highly patriotic and you are supposed to summit on the 4th of July…that way you will never forget the day you made it. Hoping you get the thumbs up, soon, and can reach your hard earned goal. And Tym, since you never take pictures (but you also still have all of your fingers), can you have a team member take a few for you? Thanks.
GO TYM! GO TEAM!
Love Mom and Zeppelin
