Map of our route today!
Journey
in a Nutshell
We left Thessalon, Ontario about 8 AM this morning to cloudy skies
and threat of snow.... We had great trails for the 1st half and then kind
of rough in the afternoon... the biggest thing that happened today was
running low on fuel, we attempted to refuel about 30 miles out of Chapleau,
Ontario, but the outpost was out of gas, So we continued on, with the 1st
sled running out of fuel about 10 miles from Chapleau, then 2 more sleds
ran out, we kept all seven snowmobiles running by transferring fuel between
the sleds, We called Adam (our support vehicle driver) on the satellite
phone and made arrangements for him to get gas to us, but we managed to
get to a station, before he found us...We are off to Timmins, Ontario in
the morning.... Snowing as we write this.

"Dope
of the Day" Bryon is trying to fall in the freezing river, we begged
him to come back from the edge... cuz no one really wanted to jump in after
him...
Here
we see Mike trying to figure out where he is..... We think he's lost..
Does anyone know what that UFO is in the top left hand corner???? it kind
of freaked us out! "this picture has not been altered!"

only way to get that shot.... Pete here is sporting his homemade helmet
