Congratulations to Tina! here is a quote about Brad Washburn, forever associated with Denali because of his pioneering photography and the West Buttress route. Washburn had told us that you build igloos because they don’t flap in the wind, and “because you have to go outside to find out what the weather is doing.” Jonathan Waterman, In The Shadow of Denali page 35

They've come a long way in a relatively short period of time. Congratulations Tina. Photos: http://piotrowski.smugmug.com SpotCasting: https://maps.findmespot.com/s/9DDZ#history/assets

Here's a link to a movie that almost completely ignores the fact that Barbara Washburn was the First Woman to summit McKinley on the expedition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQJfvgtobWA&feature=youtube_gdata_player I've been reading her memoir.
