We’re loading up on the 330-foot Sea Adventurer in Ushuaia, Argentina (the furthest south city on Earth) this afternoon. ย We’re heading to Antarctica with Ice Axe Expeditions.ย I will be guiding 4 clients for 6 days of backcountry skiing in Antarctica next week. ย Fired up.
It’ll takeย two days in the boat to cross the infamous Drake Passage and arrive at the Antarctic Peninsula. ย Once there, we’ll be climbing and skiing for 6 days before returning home.
We’ve skied the past 5 days here in Ushuaia and I’ve been blown away. ย Easy access and great terrain make the backcountry here shine.
This will be the trip of a lifetime and my 4 clients are strong. ย We’ll be documenting the adventure as best we can and I’ll certainly get up a trip report once back in the Americas.
