Climber Lonnie Dupre is continuing his attempt to be the first person to climb Denali solo in the month of January. He has given regular updates via sat phone, and his Facebook page is tracking his progress. As of Tuesday morning, Dupre was camped at 14,200 feet and planning to haul his gear to 15,000 feet. From there, he will establish caches and continue to acclimate as he waits for a weather window to attempt the summit. In his last sat-phone update, recorded on Monday, Dupre says he is feeling fit after a day of rest.
