ALASKA EXPEDITION 2010

“E mail me for specific info on cost and logistics. Refrigeratorfridge@gmail.com

Alaska's Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve is at the top of more than one list of superlatives. It is the largest U.S. national park, which, when combined with other nearby parks (Kluane National Park, Glacier Bay National Park, and Canada's Tatshenshini-Alsek Park) is the biggest part of the largest internationally protected area in the world (24 million acres) and has been recognized as a World Heritage Site. Nine of the 16 highest peaks in the United States, and some of the largest mountains (by volume) in the world, are located here. The largest concentration of Dall sheep in North America live here.
The prime time of year for visiting Wrangell-St. Elias is from June 20 to August 20, but don't think that there won't be any backcountry hardship. Wrangell-St. Elias is a mountain wilderness unlike any other. It is almost entirely roadless, there are no maintained trails in the park, and access is only by unpaved road, boat, or plane. Backcountry adventurers run the risks of hypothermia, bear encounters, dangerous river crossings.


Wrangell- St. Elias NP
Land on a Mesa with stunning views of Mt Jarvis, Mt Gordon, Mt Wrangell and Mt Zanetti and Hike down off the Mesa to Grizzly Lake and fish, explore the numerous canyons in the area then down to Sheep Lake and on to our pick up point. Total Mileage approx. 10-12 miles for each

“Bring your arse along man. Plenty of peaks to climb.”

“Still basecamping or gonna bushwhack again?”

“Fridge,

I didn't receive an email about the costs. You trying to tell me something... :)”

“Nevermind...I didn't check the right email. Thanks!”

“i'll research the area to see. i doubt i would get another climber to go (mandatory for roped climbing) but i would not mind solo class 3/4 scrambling. thing is you might set up basecamp and i would be like GONE and you would not see me again the rest of the trip once i got into those hills. lol!”

“hey Fridge--hope you got my e-mail, 'cuz I'm about to buy my plane ticket! I think I picked the right year to go--sounds like you have all the bugs worked out, and if Marko and Coco bring guitars we'll have some sweet music under the midnight sun!!”

“Dub....two different routes can be taken pending weather conditions....There will be a possibility of a 2 day base camp on the Mesa.”

“Hey Sunny, I signed up.

Uh Oh!”

“Hey if we get enough peeps maybe we could get 2 vehicles.”

“.....and leave a vehickle at either trail head, eh?”

“Missed you last week. This place is weak without you.”

“I was living in the sand at Assateague Island for a week............no TV, no TT”

“no. so we have a bit more room. hey Fridge , what's the max number of peeps for this trip?”

“Let's get some more women on this thing.”

“This trip is going to be interesting...”

“Hey Jen, are you ready for some football??”

“Football? The sport? Maybe... why?”

“Tis a figure of speech, dear.

I mean to train up good for this thing and be ready for some hard terrain.”

“I knew it probably was a figure of speech :)

I've already started training!”

“I'll kick both your pansy asses.”

“Go for it”

“I got your Pansy ass right here... I mean... Uh..Oh Nevermind! : (”

That explains the missing nasty trolls.”

“Go #&%!$ yourself, Stoviet.”

“Pansy? Harry, and who was wearing the kilt? Hmmm? And that white thingy the first night or nightie?:)”

“Does it make any sense to call a girl a pansy? I can hold my own, but I don't profess to be manly or anything like that.”

“We shall see!!

Hoo hoo ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!

I've seen the kilt!!”

“Did you see Jackstraws Muslim getup? Just needs a turban and he would look the part.:) More man than I ever care to be.”

“Just so everyone knows, I make NO claims to be tough! I am a bit of a pansy. But there's just something about the chance of playing with grizzlies that I can't turn down! I am thinking about getting a kilt for this trip bcs I didn't see a lot of trees to pee behind.”

“That's a good point, sunny. I might need to invest in one too.”

“Do I have to show off my legs, too?”

“I bought a hiking skirt this summer. I love it. I wouldn't go to Alaska without one.”

“Yea what Hiker Duane said...Muhammad jackstraws bama and his kilt killed lots of skeeters too.”

“Marko-you can show off whatever you want to!! TJ--I'm thinking kilts are the way to go.”

“Here's one for ya....When we arrived in Nabesna and all of us piled out the truck....I walked up to this young lady setting on the porch swing......she had this stoned look on her face with a GRIN......I turned too look at what she was to mesmerized on...heehaw it was Jackstraw in his KILT....she turned and said....is that a dress that dude is wearing.....I laughed and said we picked him up hitchhiking. She then laughed still stoned face with a grin looking at Jackstraw.
Then Kirk and all those other folks came around and they sort a half smiled with one half of there face in a grin and keeping the other side of there face business like....Go ahead Harry tellem about it man.....I ain't wearing to kilt in those back woods.....oh yes....Jackstraw...how did you get those nasty SKEETERS out from under your tussah!?”

“hey I got it.....Deet scented toilet paper.
