Expedition StarFish: August 2012

Thursday, August 23, 2012

Here is our planned route.

River Pascua to Villa O'Higgins via Southern Icefield and Cerro Steffan.

We haven't been back to Patagonia in over two years. Almost enough time to forget. Time to go back.

30 days unsupported? Double carries? Packrafts? Southern Ice Field? Lomo a la pobre?

Sure.

About US!

He is an avid birder and loves to slay fish. This will be Andy’s 6 trip down to Patigonia. Andy’s greatest quality that he brings this expedition is his ability to have fun in not funny moments.

Galen Dossin

Galen has explored and adventured on 5 continents; Asia, Antarctica, South America, North America, and Africa. While leading trips around the world, driving heavy machinery through crevassed ice fields, or wearing extra-tuffs on long hiking trips, Galen is always smiling and ready to carry on an conversation just about anything. He is an avid reader and specializes reading books out loud while storm bound in tents. This will be Galen’s 56^th time in Patagonia. Galen’s greatest quality that he brings this expedition is ample amounts of free time.

Kailyn McGrath

Kailyn loves activities. This will be Kailyn’s 4^th time down to Patagonia. While eating as many avocados as possible, both Californian and Chilean, Kailyn is always dreaming up new backcountry recipes. She is an avid runner and trains for marathons by hoping for the best and aggressively hydrating. Kailyn’s greatest quality that she brings this expedition is her ability to spontaneously pick people up while giving hugs.
