Vinson Massif: The Antarctic Season Begins!

Categories: *Expedition Dispatches *Vinson Massif
This is Seth checking in from Punta Arenas. The team has all arrived safe and sound. We have also managed to arrive with all of our luggage! Thank goodness.
We spent the day getting to know each other and prepping for the journey onto the ice. We will be getting our final briefing with ALE in the morning and hopefully flying to Antarctica within the next few days. As for now we are enjoying the wonderful restaurants in Punta. We will update everyone tomorrow with the plan.

Have a fantastic and memorable adventure Bruce! And please don’t forget your gloves! As Andrew Denton once said, “If Antarctica were music it would be Mozart. Art, and it would be Michelangelo. Literature, and it would be Shakespeare. And yet it is something even greater; the only place on earth that is still as it should be. May we never tame it.
Posted by: Gale on 12/4/2012 at 3:30 am
Good luck to the entire team! I am so proud of you Dad and can’t wait to see you in a few weeks! :)
