It is difficult to determine depth in this photo but I am about 2000′ off the ground. Each crevasse is large enough to swallow a Buick or ten. It’s humbling to realize the scale of these glaciers. This is the Tazlina Glacier and it’s approximately 2 miles wide and 20 miles long. She is a real beauty. The weather near the Tazlina is extreme, regularly blowing more than 50 mph with temperatures reaching to -40 in the winter. Speaking of cold and wind, I hope you are all staying warmer than I am during this Christmas season. It is currently 11 degrees and blowing more than 50 mph. I just went up on the roof of the hangar to re-attach some DuPont roof-liner and … it was scary.
Hey, there are only a few calendars in stock so order today if you want one. There will be more calendars arriving next week, but I cannot guarantee how long they will stay in stock.
I believe everything is in stock except XL t-shirts and XXL hoodies, but more are on the way.
My wonderful mother is my shipping department during the Christmas season and she always does an awesome job. With on-line orders increasing each year it has been an interesting beast to tackle. Shipping out of Alaska is expensive, we do our best on the price and often end up eating some of the expense our selves, but … what should we expect living this far north :o)
