With literally thousands of images from the trip to get through, this will take some time. But we're beginning to find some photos that remind of of why we too the hard route in the first place. We'll be putting up a complete breakdown of the trip, all of the anchorages, and a gallery of the best photos just as soon as we get through them all.
