About Me
- Thrukon
- Thrukon is a 2500 mile sub-arctic glacial survey on two motorcycles through sections of British Columbia, Yukon Territory and Alaska. The survey team hopes to observe and document important glaciers along the route north, while attempting to capture the spirit of exploration. The general approach for the trip will be part travel documentary and part research survey, which will involve riding motorcycles equipped with the necessary gear for field research, camping and video/photo documentation; as well as limited spares for any unforeseen events. This blog is the repository for all of the information gathered in preparation for and during the journey.

Breaking in the Whip
Done. I finally got 600 miles under the fender of this thing. It was time to ditch the office on a Wednesday afternoon for a ride up to Lake Castaic, then through the Angeles National Forest to find the illusive Lake Hughes. The fun bit was this 23 mile stretch consisting of quick serpentines, with perfect mid-day weather and no other autos on the ribbon.
