Dash for Siberia

Rudderless and swept aside

Dave's bounty from 30 minutes fishing in the river at Nome

No skullduggery - just neglect

To the beach via an unkempt graveyard. Biker buried where he fell.

Ready to return to the warmth of the cabin

meanwhile Jo tries to resurrect a Honda dog sled, plane & airstrip in background

Gusty conditions

Beating a retreat up the beach

Ignominious defeat

Big case of the crabs

Second attempt - confident

Striking out - still confident

Our hero is ready to set off for Siberia

Snow & ice-lined rivers

Launching - still confident

Confidently striding towards the pack ice

Door Matt our pilot - hey Matt the controls are up the front!

Salmon hung out to dry

Twists & turns of the waterways below

Matt's in charge, co-pilot Dave tries the sick bag

Passing Nome, heading northwest

Our bounty - eating his. Baby Aiden courtesy of the flight crew

One of thousands of gorgeous tundra blooms

Stepping out for the tundra tango with local, Richard

Jo's dream machine

Oh shit - the Walmart $11.95 inflatable is swamped

Main street Nome

Destination Wales - desolate Eskimo fishing village

All aboard the charter to the Bering Strait - Dave & Inflatable secured

The coast of Norton Sound

White Mountain just south-east of Nome - and the settlementof the same name

The Yukon drains the tundra

3 million lakes
