Linus is doing double carries between camp 1 and 1.5 at 7,500' and 9,600' on Mount McKinley, Denali. He discusses the trade off between hypothermia risk and crevasse fall risk. He does a final 3rd run to base camp to get isobutane cannisters for the ascent. This is days seven to nine on Denali and part 5 of the vlog.
