OK, the shared page is done and as of Monday, August 30th, we hope that SPOT will begin tracking our steps. Note, that first day has a fair amount of climbing and so you won’t see a lot of forward progression on that day. We’ve heard that could take upwards of 6 hours to reach the top ridge and still a bit further beyond to reach our first camp.
In any case, here’s a link to the page:
Exploring Ruts & Ledges SPOT page
It will look something like this:
Each tracking signal sent and each OK message sent will be listed along the left. On the right, there will be a Google map showing where we are situated on the map. Note, there should be a tab in the top right corner of the Google map (just like you might see when you’re looking at any Google map) that says ‘Satellite’. Click on that to see terrain of the area where we’re hiking.
Keeping fingers crossed it all works. But, even if not…know that we’re having fun!
