(6) 17000 to Summit - W. Buttress
Summit day! This is the big day! Time to breath thin air, move as efficiently as possible, and touch the highest point on North America! First you will ascend/traverse the Autobahn to Denali Pass. After that, you hook back and ascend the broad ridge up and across to the Football Field. The final hump, brings you to the summit ridge, and finally the summit. Bring only what you need. I like to say "food and feathers". Things you can eat and drink and clothes to keep you warm. A stove, pot, fuel, lighter, shovel, and light pad can add some security to your summit bid. But you will also be moving slower, carrying a heavy pack. Each climber must make their own decisions on how much they can "strip down" their summit pack items. Stats: 2.35 miles, 3235 feet
