Alaska '17 - Slovak Direct and Moonflower Attempts

During my expedition to the Central Alaska Range with Uisdean Hawthorn in 2017, we attempted two routes: the Moonflower on Mt. Hunter/Begguya, and the Slovak Direct on Denali. Despite being unsuccessful on both routes due to bad weather, we still had a great trip and summitted Denali (6190m) via the West Buttress.
