Mt. McKinley or Denali, Alaska

11.5.-8.6.2002

This is a short trip report from our ascent of Mt. McKinley. We - that is on this journey only Barbara and myself. We had originally planed 3 weeks for the ascent. But with the extraordinary good weather we stood allready on the 8th day on the summit and flew back from the glacier to Talkeetna after 12 days. Therefore you find some more slides from the "green" Alaska at the end.

We planned and organized this trip on our own. But be careful, what seems so easy and harmless here in my report, can demand everything even from the best alpinists when the weather changes suddenly.
