USA | Sun, 4 Sep 2011 | By mdcamps | Views [406]

Aialik Glacier is SPECTACULAR. Sitting on a cruise boat a quarter mile off the glacier with the engine off just listening to the sound of the ice I was in constant awe. The sounds of the glacier are astonishing. Then to see a huge ice chunk break off, ... Read more >

USA | Mon, 29 Aug 2011 | By mdcamps | Views [450]

We put in a huge effort to ski again and it was well worth it. After hiking up to Crow Pass with our overnight gear, we realized there were ski-able slopes up there. So we camped for the night and set the alarm for early in the morning.  In the morning, ... Read more >

CANADA | Tue, 12 Oct 2010 | By elis82 | Views [861]

The last couple of days in the Canadian Rockies was pretty cool. Jasper was really cool, and we'd have loved to have had a couple of extra days to spend there, but we had to get back to Whistler for the Great Turkey Sale, held each Canadian Thanksgiving ... Read more >

El Chalten

ARGENTINA | Sun, 9 Mar 2008 | By katrinamckeever | Views [1105]

Eager to claw back some cash after the finance draining excess of the Merino glacier, we took our wee tent up the road to El Chalten, a lovely little town at the base of Fitzroy mountain where the camping is free. The downside is there is no shower ... Read more >
