Welcome
to the Spring 2001 cybercast of Denali!
There
are certain mountains which need no explanation as to
"why climb." Denali is such a mountain as
its natural magnetism constantly draws climbers to the
great Alaska Range. This type of ascent is one which
touches the psyche of all alpinists and those who have
undertaken this challenge have been rewarded with a
once-in-a-lifetime experience.
As
Everest is to the Tibetans, Denali is inseparable from
indigenous Alaskan lore. Every native who saw Denali
towering over their horizon, named it accordingly, The
Great One or The High One.
We
wish all of the teams the best of luck and look
forward to following their adventures.
