Heading North Next Week!

It's "all systems go"! The bags are packed - the skype account as well as IM Messenger are intact and ready for use - internet access permitting. We're hearing good reports about weather and road conditions and even the thought loads may be starting to go in as early as early the week of Jan. 22nd! They will be part (lighter) loads because of ice thicknesses not being up to full weight strength. This photo is a Road maintenance water truck that went through the ice on a pond about 10 kilometers north of Charlie's Hill.

This map shows the route of the winter road. To repeat, in 2005 I was at the LacDeGras road camp at kilometer 350. In 2005 I was at Dome Lake camp. The tree line is aproximately kilometer 270. I hope you find this interesting and gives a picture of how the road is laid out.
