Helping a Friend UPDATE! (Pt 1)

Let me catch you all up on my friend Albert's situation...... At the beginning of February while attempting to make it town for supplies, his ARGO broke and he ended up sliding down a hillside into a frozen creek and snowdrift and was unable to get the ARGO out. He ended up hiking back to his cabin. After accessing his situation and supplies at the cabin and with no other way out he contacted me through SKYPE and tell me what happened. Upon hearing about the ARGO and that he only had fuel to run the generator for a few more hours he decided that he would need to be rescued. We figured that if I could get some fuel to him to run his generator for a day or two that would give him time to gather some important papers, his animals and winterize the cabin. I managed to get a hold of a friend that had two snowmobiles and after hearing the situation he offered to try and get some fuel to Albert and work out a Evac plan. I got 15 gallons of fuel, met my friends son and with the snowmobiles

It's summer already!

I couldn't believe that I haven't been on here in months! It summer time now and I will try and blog a little more about my travels. We are planing a trip on Amtrak from Shelby, MT to West Glacier, MT on July 8-10 and I will try and get some pictures and write about the adventure.
