The 3YØK team can announce the addition of a strong medical and support team for our 2026 Bouvet expedition!
We have the pleasure to inform we have added 6 persons to the team all with excellent experience within medical, safety, evacuation, and emergency situations.
They will function as medical and support team during camp build up and assist in building and maintaining the camp, as well take on responsibility for making this a safe expedition for all of us.
That includes analysing weather forecasts and prepare the team for storm and shelter.
Shawn is our team doctor, a specialist in emergency physician medicine from the USA. He is supported by Julia who is currently doctor in charge at the Neymar III base in Antarctica, as well one more doctor from Switzerland HB9FKF, is joining us. Shawn is also supported by his brother Neil who is a scientist in Alaska for the National Park service.
In charge of the SAR operations at Bouvet is Peter who also joined us at Bouvet previous time – he has a proven track record supporting expeditions in remote areas like Arctic/Antarctica.
Birgir is a seasoned expedition guide with over 15 years of experience operating in extreme environments, specializing in glacial terrain and harsh winter conditions.
The team is ramping up our preparations for Cape Town departure in February. In twoweeks’ time we plan to pay the next deposits in total $650,000. By that time we have invested around $1,650,000 in the expedition.
We are still seeking donations to close our budget. In addition we need two more operators. If you want this to be a successful expedition, please consider supporting us. Our target is to raise $60,000 before departure.
We thank all our supporters for your help!
