I'm sitting in the hotel room In Montreal, awaiting my flight home! We made a jailbreak yesterday morning. One float plane had arrived the day before with supplies. the pilot said he would have NOT flown passengers, as the fog/low clouds were bad. Yesterday morning it cleared a bit & I was on the first group to take that plane out. We got about halfway, visibility got poor, so the pilot landed on a remote lake by some rough cabins used by Jack Hume. We sat there about an hour & tried again. We finally made it to Nac Pau. However, we had to wait 3.5 hrs for the other float plane to fly to camp, get the last 6 guys, then fly back. Luckily they made it.
There was a group from the Des Bergais camp that was waiting 2 days for all of us from Leaf River, so we could all take the charter to Montreal. They were glad to see us finally arrive!
Despite the migration not hitting yet. Everyone tagged out. I think the other camp tagged out as well & saw some monsters in photos from there.
The charter that flew from camp after the first day delay, was a wheeled plane that had hunters that had chartered it to Leaf. It is not a routine flight in. So six guys took it out of camp. The expense ($1200-2200) was for the connecting "commercial" plane leaving the coastal airport (can't remember the name) straight to Montreal. It was an Inuit airline I think.
