My 10th summit of Mt. Timpanogos as part of a traverse from north to south.
Headed up the northeast ridge of Timp to begin a traverse across the top from the North.
Full trip report coming soon…

During the Denali Prep Course I attended in Alaska last month, I met a guy from Boston (@joemarcello18) who had just done this podcast with a guy I hike with from Salt Lake (@tayy__tayy22). Talk about crazy connections!

Super fun ridge hike that I`m calling the "Silver Lake Scramble". It goes from Silver Lake up to White Baldy, then over to Silver Lake Peak and down along Deer Creek/Dry Creek from Community Flat. We wanted to hit Box Elder too but ran out of time...

You can get pretty creative with how you carve out your living areas on the Kahiltna Glacier. We had a urinal in our bathroom, a refrigerator in our tent’s rear vestibule and seats in our kitchen. I felt like a kid again building forts and playing in the snow.

The instructors for our Denali Prep course were awesome! Greg Runyan has an incredible amount of experience from 30 years of climbing throughout this Range, touching the top of Alaska 6 times with @alaskamountaineeringschool since 2005. @david_kerner is also well versed at tackling Denali with 4 successful summits of his own since 2019. Both offered many pro tips and tricks from their respective depths of knowledge.

The white sands of this beach are amazing! Off in the distance is Mt. Foraker (17,400′) and Mt. Crosson (12,352′).

Winter camping in Alaska was like Scouting on steroids! I was so grateful to have come with a lot of experience from my days as a Scoutmaster... hiking, backpacking, camping, cooking, cold weather management, ropes, knots, lashing, navigation, leadership, teamwork and on and on... It`s really a shame that the organization imploded.

Our group of Misfit Mountaineers spent the next 7 days on the Kahiltna Glacier with @alaskamountaineeringschool, trying to get a taste of what a real Denali expedition would be like. This Denali Prep Course was both awesome and disappointing all at the same time.
