Camsell Mountains
I finally got around to playing with the autostitch tool. (Developed here at UBC, using genuine homegrown SIFT features!) I've had some panorama shots sitting around in my image database for years, so it has been fun finally putting them together.

(Linked to the full image, which is hyuj. But worth it.)
These are the Camsell Mountains, as seen from our day 9 campsite on the Mackenzie. This was shortly after the Camsell Bend, where we finally started to head north. Despite how nice it looks, we had spent the last day and a half fighting absolutely horrible headwinds . We had triumphed over the elements, made our target distance, were finally racking up some real latitude, and even found a fairly nice campsite. Morale was high.
I'm really glad I bothered to get these pics. That was a good night. That was a satphone night, and talking to loved ones while taking in this vista is a powerful memory.

Remember the the 270-degree turn against the current, on our first mooring attempt?

Also good times: those currents around the rock face after Wrigley. Whee!
