An Antarctic First

During January 2021 Tim Blakemore was Lead Mountain Guide on a unique, bespoke expedition to the Antarctic Peninsula. Using two vessels and helicopters we undertook the first heliski operation (tbc) there. As well as being responsible for land based safety he also assisted Dr Tom Hart in data gathering using small boat access.

This was the twentieth anniversary of Tim’s first visit to this unique environment,having first visited as a Field Assistant for the British Antarctic Survey in 2000/1

 

Tim was working on behalf of Spirit of Sydney Expeditions.
