I’m posting this now, while they still might be able to get out. It would be bad form later to say “I told you so” to the deceased.

They think it is still 2012, or at least their camera does.

More evidence of a failure to attend to details… unless it is an old photo.
Their humor about Franklin’s death in this photo is inappropriate.
They seem blind to how close they are themselves to their own demise.
Don’t push your luck any further guys.
Go home.
Steve, it seems useless to try to warn humans.
It is no coincidence that almost all religions carry the same message: “Pride goeth before the fall.”

So they haven’t posted a position since 11:00 AM yesterday. Where do you think they will be when they turn the GPS back on?
These guys[if they survive], will likely head down to Florida, and try diverting hurricanes
with Walmart fans. Hey! There are 4 of them. It should work.
Your factual comment was “too hostile” for this escapade.
I could not find it listed.
They are not listening to reasonable discussion.
They deleted both Steven’s and mu comments along with others saying they should rethink their travels. What we were saying was not supportive.
If the wind and seas ever calm down, rowing back to Cape Parry and “pulling” down the coast to Paulatuk would be my choice… provided the ice allows a gap. Then go home and call it a day.
Erm, in the warmista lexicon, one does not “call it a day”. The only appropriate action would be to “declare victory”.
Remember, logic does not apply to warmistas. Ever.
Greate to see some one who got it.
Get to the nearest shore, abandon their boat anchor of a boat, load up on food stores and walk?
Reblogged this on The Firewall.
I still won’t think it was a serious effort until they have to eat their dead, I don’t think they have any dogs.
Al, DON’T send them to Florida, the gators aren’t hungry.enough to eat frozen food.
Good one. OK. I should have thought of that . Hah! ;^)
I would guess there has to be Canada Ice Breakers up in that area opening shipping routes this time of year. There is a list of all ships and locations link but I don’t have it any more. Can some one post it.
Might be.
More likely is the annual Sea Lift boats that deliver the annual food/fuel/non-perishable supplies to the small villages that make up the settlements of the Arctic Archipelago.
As they unload cargo, there would be room for the Gilligan Boys and their boat.

I hope they realize how far “help” is…….
If they need immediate rescue….it’s not going to happen
More like this dilemma:

well…the closest helicopter rescue I can find is in Yellowknife
…I don’t think those birds carry enough fuel to fly that round trip
Weren’t there a group of hikers a few years back that didn’t make it to the NP, but planted victory flags anyway?
If they can find one overheated snow snake they will declare victory and talk about it for the next 10 years.
This has probably been done to death, already:

It should, of course, have been this:

Looks like they got off the island an hour ago.

Mother Gaia intervening via her faithful angels – Evinrude and Honda?
This is looking more like Donald Crowhurst’s voyage every day

LOL 5km south to more land….WRONG WAY!!!!
Whilst they’re heading south, there’s an air strip at the community of Paulatuk at the bottom of the bay
I sure hope they picked up their trash, those liberal rallies usually leave a mess.
I’m thinking that they are headed for Paulatuk where there is RCMP an airport and float plane summer accessibility …. once there they will surrender to the climate change ice god that blocked their way to a successful mission. Reggie will pick them up in his Lear jet and all will be drinking girly man coffee flavoured drinks at Starbucks in Edmonton by the weekend.
The GPS tracking has disappeared.
(on my iPad.)
Kevin just left a “time capsule” “in the Arctic” for his daughters on their little island.
That tells me that they are done.
Next, they will announce “it’s over”.
Indeed kbray …. I meant to mention that in my post as the reason behind my thinking that they were giving up … it looked like a grand finale type of action.
Re: time capsule
I hope the daughters develop the wisdom to say “damnit dad, you are a nut, and we are not journeying into the icy Arctic to retrieve a stupid time capsule!”
I still get a 12:30 GPS loc from them … still on the move south.
It vanished from my iPad.
But I can get it on the laptop.
Thanks.
At the rate and path they moving on, they’re slogging a shoreline again.
