I saw this on a Web site for a professor I knew at MIT -
North West Buttress, Denali Well, almost. We had bad wheather and sat parked on the Peters Glacier for more than a week after dropping down from Kahiltna pass without events. When we did get up on the NorthWest Buttress, there was obvious avalanche danger, so we finally bailed out, short of food and fuel. If you find our cache in the rocks at the base, please bring back the cans of AGFA film. By mistake we left two exposed rolls and brought back two unexposed rolls. You are welcome to anything else that the crows didn't get, including our `cerebreal oedema meter' — a small Rubik's cube — yes, it was a few years ago...
I don't know if he ever got his film back, but, if you go up there - take a look for him.
Thanks
