With all the information available out there these questions about climbing Denali (in a day) are comical . Try reading Denali’s Howl or The boys of Everest .
Get your self clued in.

Is it possible to become infos on the expeditions running real time? Provides the Denali National Park any? It is not easy to be waiting at home, without no other info than the local weather forecast... I guess it will be not available, but just in case...
Thanks a lot anyway...

The average ascent time for a trained and acclimatized team (altitude and temperature) is 2 weeks minimum even on the West Buttress route. Also understand, just like Everest, the window of safely climbing Denali/McKinley is May to July, any other time places way too much risk on team members. Remember, this is the coldest summit in the world with lows of -75 and windchills of -118.

If you have to ask whether or not Denali is climbable in a single day, you shouldn't even try it. Stay safe!
Spoiler: It's basically not.

Dave you will almost certainly die from an accident or altitude sickness if you attempt Denali in one day. It has been done, but by renowned mountaineers with special physical abilities who've trained their entire lives. The air at the summit is almost as thin as it is at the summit of Everest. Add that to the fact that Everest is 11,500 feet from base to summit while Denali is 15,000 base to summit.

Climbing Denali in a day, that's pretty funny. Try more like a month! And you shouldn't even be attempting it without at least a decade of extensive mountaineering training and experience. Many people say it is harder than Everest.

This mountain is the ultimate. "The Great One". Please rename to it's proper name, Denali.
