So, uh, I'm turning 40 and the world's coming to an end soon apparently. Soooo I figure this is a good year to go see Antarctica.

Yeah, it's stupid expensive. Friend who skis and went says it was great/worth it.
Looking for a like-minded cabin mate. Minimal snoring, dirtbag/not loaded, tolerable company.

Those trips are full of old people taking pictures, I got a pro photographer friend who guided a lot o them to to make ends meet
Cool trip. When you do the polar bear plunge, don’t go head first.
Maybe you’ll get to see iceberg A23a.
Hmmm, prolly, but the skiing looks pretty OK.Quote:

I think it would be fucking expensive and logisticaly hard to ski it
altho I hear Trump is going to claim it for America which might make it easier
Obviously with price, the demo isn’t dirtbag ski bums, but IceAxe has been doing this for a while and the skiing looks decent when they get the weather. Definitely super insta worthy photo ops. I’m sure some mag or two has made the trip and can report on it
The crossing is definitely a likely barf fest for most
If you read the link you would know that it’s a ski and snowboard specific tripQuote:

Highly recommend, TR from my time going:https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...rctica-2014Let me know if you want any tips.
Funny story not in the tr, got the wife pregnant while crossing Drake back to South America. Most expensive part of the trip, ha!
The drake passage makes me want to barf just thinking about it. I am not great with sea sickness so when the husband asked about an Antarctic trip a couple of years ago I took a pass. That sea passage freaks me out
Great TR man!Quote:

Did you find someone and get things figured out? Just got an email from ice axe saying only a few balcony($$$) room remain.
I have not. Currently wrestling with the fact that they want me to pay an extra 3 grand to ski...on this "Skiing trip". Cheap.Quote:
