On top of the world. To say it was hard, would be an understatement. I couldn’t be more proud of these guys and everything they have done, both on the mountain and in life. What a privilege to know them. Chris Welch, Tyler Duncan, Ray White, Clif Luber, Robert Day, Colby Bowers

Sorry for the bad screen shot, but I wanted to give a quick update. The guys are half way to the summit!!! It’s a 6 hour, extremely intense, hike from their last camp to the summit. To say I am so proud of these guys for making it even this far, is an understatement!!! These last 3 hours will definitely require some strong mental fortitude and physical endurance!

Good morning everyone! Today is summit day for our team!!!! It’s also gut check day, as it’s one of the hardest and defintiely the longest. They’ll get up at midnight and hike to the summit (19,341ft) for the sunrise and then hike 10 hours down to 10,000ft and make camp. It ends up being a 14 hour day of hiking! with- Chris Welch, Ray White, Clif Luber, Tyler Duncan, Robert Day, Colby Bowers, Rob Palin.

To get a little more perspective, this is video of day 5, from our trekking company (but not our hike). The area they are climbing is called the Barranco Wall. It's very steep! You don't need any climbing experience, but core strength, balance, and concentration. It will test your level of physical fitness!

Today is a day to remember. We will be scrambling on the Barranco wall and you will have an epic all before lunch. 95% of the Barranco wall is steep walking ...
