Lonnie was picked up by Talkeetna Air Taxi this afternoon at approximately 1:45 PM. As I type he is in the shower getting rid of 3 weeks of dirt and grime. He is in good spirits and is looking forward to a nice fresh green salad and glass of red wine. All is well and he says hello and thank you for following his progress on the blog.
Picture of Lonnie taken today at 2:00 PM on the lower Kahiltna glacier right when we landed.
Very glad he returned safe and sound. This expedition was a huge undertaking and he accomplished the most important objective: returning safely.
ReplyDeleteAll the best to you, Lonnie in all the adventures this year will bring.

Congrats on a successful expedition Lonnie it was truly a thrill to follow your daily progress. Denali is one hell of a headstone but it is so much better to have you back!
