| In the interim between our chapter meetings, I thought you might be interested in an Explorers Club flag expedition to re-trace the route of the Lady Franklin Bay expedition of 1881 to 1884. Chapter member, Dr. Goeffrey Clark, MD, MN88 carried EC Flag # 25 on this journey. He recently sent me an e-mail that introduced me to this well prepared website. Have a look and share his adventure. Below are some photos from the site.
