January 15th Day 9 - 14,200

Jaunuary 15th- 14,200!!! 
7:03 PM
Just got off the phone with Lonnie.  After a very long day, of wind and crevasses Lonnie is at 14,200.  He made it around Windy Corner today.   Many times during his crossing of Windy Corner he had to double ice axe in and wait out the wind.  From Windy corner to 14,2000 the crevasse were large and numerous.  Lonnie commented that he crossed at least 2 that were 40 feet wide.  He said it there were many more crevasses than this past summer.  He is in good spirits.  He is going to dig in and take a well deserved rest day tomorrow.   UPWARD
