Great Trip

by James Spaltro

Departure in August 2022

Region: Arctic

Destinations: Greenland

Ship: m/v Ortelius

Highlights: Photo Workshop, Minke Whale, Musk Ox, Atlantic puffin, Bearded Seal, Ptarmigan, Svalbard reindeer, Arctic Skua, Hiking

Not only was this a great trip with great expedition crew, but we were lucky enough to have fellow passengers from the Scott Polar Research Institute/Cambridge on board who were gracious enough to provide lectures on various topics including geology, glaciers, etc. A super extra bonus was having John Shears on board with the Scott Polar Research group, and he gave an awesome presentation on being the expedition leader that just recently discovered Shackleton's Endurance under the ice in Antarctica.
