The Antarctic Migration

Greg Vernovage, Stephen Lutz (Denali 2013), Richard Dale (Denali 2014), and Melis Coady in a holding pattern waiting to fly to the Union Glacier, Antarctica.

Ever wonder where all the guides go after the Alaska mountaineering season? This time of year for many it is Antarctica. As the mountaineering season down there rolls into full swing Melis Coady sent us an update while waiting to fly. Besides Greg Vernovage she expects to run into other times AMS guides; Tim Hewitt, Todd Tumolo, Nate Opp, Todd Passey and Josh Hoeschen who have all traded an Alaska winter for the snowy Antarctic summer. Best wishes for a Happy New Year to everyone down south!
