John called from the summit at around 3:00pm AK time. Vance and Nick were cheering in the background. They made great time reaching the top in just about 6 hours. It was a bit windy on top, but John said it was "bearable" so they aren't planning on spending much time up there.
Congratulations guys!
Here is a video Todd shot on the summit in 2007. It is a pretty amazing place...
