The Alaska Range reflects in his visor as Staff Sgt. Evan Sutton watches for danger while his U.S. Army Alaska Aviation Task Force CH-47 Chinook helicopter flies along the Alaska Range on its way to Kahiltna Glacier May 20. A team of eight soldiers and one Army civilian from Fort Wainwright were transported by B Company, 1st Battalion, 52nd Aviation Regiment to the National Park Service base camp on the glacier to begin their attempt to climb Mount McKinley, North America's tallest peak. The team members are representatives of U.S. Army Alaska's Northern Warfare Training Center and the 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division. (Army photo/John Pennell)
