SPOT George River Tracking Page

The tracking page shows our current position and track over the past 7 days. the tracking is updated every 15 minutes when we are on the move. OK messages are sent each morning when we leave camp and at the end of the day when we get to the next camp. On layover days there might only be one OK message around 4:20 (if we haven't left by then we are not going anywhere). Layover days may be the result of high winds, lack of energy or a desire to explore off river (we will SPOT if we go off river any distance)

Check The Water Level Gauge Here!

The weather in Schefferville will be similar to what we are experiencing for the first half of the trip. In the final week we will be under the influence of somewhat different weather patterns, check the weather in Kangiqsualujjuaq our final destination here
