点评:I went on 2 tours with Albatros. guiding is excellent for both tours
Tour #1: Russel Glacier
- 4 hours, 10 am - 2 pm
- shared group tour (7 pax)
- 60-90 min drive on ice road using monster truck
- saw 3 reindeers and 1 plane crash site 67.06277,-50.38591 along the way
- begin 1.2 km / 30 min hike at trailhead 67.09395,-50.27158. hike is both up and downhill.
- first viewpoint 67.09087,-50.25970
- main viewpoint 67.095156, -50.237189
- spent 30 min at main viewpoint, which is more than enough time
- all in all, a great relaxing way to see a 60-70 m tall glacier moving at a speed of 20 m per day. there is also a waterfall and oxbow-like river flowing at the glacier. in august, the surrounding fields in front of the glacier have many Arctic wool wildflowers, gorgeous!
Tour #2: Full Day Adventure on the Ice Sheet
- 8 hours, 10 am - 6 pm
- shared group tour (5 pax)
- saw 15 reindeers and a flock of Canadian geese en route
- UNESCO bench overlooking hunting ground and Russell and Reindeer Glacier 67.09024,-50.29241
- parking at Point 660 67.15252,-50.04983 , have lunch then get suited up in harness
- trailhead 67.15174,-50.04010 . wear crampons as the ice begins from here.
- 4G internet on ice 67.14516,-50.01253
- first canyon 67.14590,-50.00700
- early lake view 67.14631,-50.00938
- twin lakes 67.14758,-50.00930
- second canyon
67.14957,-50.01385
- multiple moulin along the way (French word for mill) where meltwater flow through a shaft
- back to trailhead 67.15174,-50.04010
- if there is any guided tour i recommend, it would be this. i am not sure how accurate the gpx track is out there for walking on ice, but this is something I would say worth paying for for efficiency and perhaps also safety on ice. the total walk on ice is 5-6 km / 4 hours
翻译:我跟随Albatros参加了两次旅游团,两次的导游服务都非常出色。
旅游#1:拉塞尔冰川
- 时长:4小时,上午10点至下午2点
- 团队旅游(共7人)
- 乘坐重型卡车在冰原公路上行驶60至90分钟
- 沿途看到了3只驯鹿以及一处飞机坠毁现场,坐标为67.06277,-50.38591
- 从起点67.09395,-50.27158开始徒步,路程1.2公里,耗时约30分钟;路线有上坡也有下坡
- 第一个观景点:67.09087,-50.25970
- 主要观景点:67.095156,-50.237189
- 在主要观景点停留了30分钟。这个时间绰绰有余了。
——总的来说,这是一种非常轻松惬意的观赏方式:可以亲眼看到一座高60-70米、每天以20米的速度移动的冰川。冰川旁边还有一条瀑布以及一条呈马蹄形的河流。八月份时,冰川前的旷野上开满了许多北极绒花,美不胜收!
游览项目#2:冰原全天探险之旅
——时长为8小时。上午10点 – 下午6点
- 团体旅游(5人一组)
- 途中看到了15只驯鹿以及一群加拿大雁
- 联合国教科文组织指定的观景台,可俯瞰狩猎区以及拉塞尔冰川与驯鹿冰川,坐标:67.09024,-50.29241
- 停车场位于坐标67.15252,-50.04983处;在此享用午餐后穿上安全背带
- 徒步起点坐标为67.15174,-50.04010;自此处开始出现冰面,需穿戴冰爪
- 冰面上的4G网络信号良好,位置坐标:67.14516,-50.01253
- 第一个峡谷的位置:67.14590,-50.00700
- 可观赏到早期湖景的地点:67.14631,-50.00938
- 双湖所在地:67.14758,-50.00930
- 第二个峡谷
67.14957,-50.01385
- 沿途有多个“磨坊”(法语中“moulin”即磨坊之意),融水通过这些竖井流出
- 返回起点:67.15174,-50.04010
- 如果有什么导览服务值得推荐的话,那就是这个了。我不确定那里的GPS轨迹数据对于在冰面上行走是否准确,但就其效率以及可能在冰面上的安全性而言,我觉得这笔钱花得值。在冰面上行走的总距离约为5-6公里,耗时约4小时。
