On to Mount Logan
Today we will leave Whitehorse heading towards the airstrip at Kluane Lake and then trying to fly in to our base camp. Yesterday we spent time shopping, food and gear checking and distribution, as well as socializing with the expedition team members (2 guides + 3 clients). Now we are ready to go.
I have updated the Logan page with some details, photos, thoughts about our expedition and other Logan related links. This is also the page where I will detail the expedition.
Additionally I have created a new SPOT satellite tracking page just for Mount Logan; both of the above are linked in the Route and Pages sections to the right.
A detailed weather forecast for the Kluane Lake area can be obtained here. The current forecast is medium for tomorrow, but then 5 days of pretty good weather, so chances are good that we will at least get to fly in without major weather delays at the airstrip.
Chances are that I will be offline for up to 3 weeks – the only updates will come from my SPOT tracker. You should hear some news the latest by Jun-1. The Canada West Mountain School should have the most details about our trip, as we will be in satellite phone communication with them throughout the expedition.
Wish us luck!
