Hollow Earth Expedition - June 26,
2007
Pre-Departure Trip Information Thank you for choosing Steve Currey expeditions Rest assured that your friends at Currey Expeditions will go to great lengths to make sure your trip is a fun, safe, and memorable one. We pioneered the concept of small group adventure travel, and now, in our fourth decade, we still haven't lost our enthusiasm for the pleasures of active travel in remote places. For your upcoming trip, there are lots of details we need to pass along - essential details like exactly what kind of clothing to bring, what immunizations are required or recommended, how best to stay healthy on the trip. Before you begin your pre-trip shopping and preparations, please slip into a comfortable chair and spend some time reading this Essential Pre-Trip Information booklet - it's sole purpose is to help you become well prepared for your journey. Read on! What you need to send back to us and when Here's a quick checklist of important items we need back from you, and when they're due: Your signed Reservation Information Form, at least 120 days before departure. Your Medical History & Certificate, signed by your physician, at least 120 days before departure. A copy of your air itinerary, if you're making your own flight arrangements, at least 60 days before departure. Your Second Deposit 25% by June 26, 2006 Your Third Deposit 20% by December 26, 2006 Your Final Payment 30% by March 26, 2007 Essential travel documents Your Passport If you don't have a passport, apply for one now because the process can be lengthy. If you do have a passport, find it and check the expiration date. The expiration date is important because many countries, including Russia, won't let you enter unless your passport is valid for at least six months beyond the date you complete your trip. Please note that you will be requested to hand over your passport to our ground operator in Moscow/Murmansk for port authorities' inspection. After completion of formalities at the end of the voyage, you will be handed back the passport prior to disembarkation from the ship. Your Visas You will need a Visa to enter Russia. For a Visa to Russia, please contact Travel Brokers 801-266-6464 and they will send you the necessary forms to apply for your Visa. Travel Insurance We strongly encourage you to purchase trip cancellation insurance upon booking your reservation for the Hollow Earth Expedition with our Company. Please contact Mrs. Betty Leasure in our Travel Department (800) 968-1711 to receive your travel insurance packet and all details pertaining to Travel Insurance. Flying there & back Betty Leasure at Overseas Travel (800) 968-1711 will be happy to make airline reservations for you from your hometown to Moscow/Murmansk Russia and return. She will quote the lowest available fare for you and help you work out the best flight schedule. Remember that you'll save money and get the lowest fares if you make reservations and purchase tickets as early as possible. If you are making your own reservations, be sure to arrange flights all the way to Moscow/Murmansk, Russia. If you are using frequent flier miles to reach Moscow/ Murmansk please contact Betty in any case so she can assist you. Please send us a copy of your air itinerary. When You Arrive in Murmansk We strongly urge you to arrive in Murmansk one day before your cruise begins (Day3) to allow for flight delays - we're happy to make hotel arrangements for you. If you choose to arrive in Murmansk on Day 1 of the itinerary, we recommend you contact our travel department (800) 968-1711 to make your hotel arrangements. If you plan to arrive on Day 3 and your flight is delayed or canceled, you could miss the cruise entirely. There are no refunds if you miss the ship. You will board the ship at 5:00 pm on Day 3 of the itinerary. If you arrive in Murmansk that morning, you'll be met at the airport, your luggage will be transferred directly to the ship, and you will be dropped off in town. After a day of sightseeing or shopping the group will meet at 4:00 pm in front of the Best Eastern Arktika Hotel. If you arrive in Murmansk the day before your cruise begins, we can book a hotel package for you (see Extensions). You will be met at the airport and transferred to your hotel. When You Depart from Murmansk You should depart Murmansk no earlier than 10:00 am on the last day of your cruise. The chance of missing an earlier flight is quite high, since even if the ship docks early in the morning, no one may depart the ship until Russian Authorities have cleared the ship through customs. If you are departing on a morning flight, you'll be transferred directly from the ship to the airport; if you have a later flight, you'll have free time in Murmansk before meeting at the rendezvous point (Your Hotel) for our transfer to the airport. You will leave your luggage on board the ship, and it will be stored on the bus which transfers you to the airport later in the day. If we've booked hotel accommodations in Murmansk for you the night following the cruise, we'll transfer you to your hotel. Departure Taxes Please check with our Travel Department (800) 968-1711 about departure taxes. Special Requests Please let us know what kind of seat you prefer on flights (aisle, window) and we will request it for you, but remember that airlines do not guarantee your preference. Also be sure to tell us of any special meal requests for your flights, such as vegetarian or kosher. Your Passport Name Your airline reservations must be made using the name that appears on your passport, not the nickname or preferred surname you might have used when you signed up for the trip, so let us know if it is different. Names on passports and tickets must match! If you or Your Travel Agent are arranging Your Flights Once you or your agent have made your airline reservations, please send us a copy of your air itinerary at least 60 days before departure. We need this information so we can arrange your transfers in Moscow & Murmansk, if we are booking accommodations and transfers for you there. If you plan to spend extra time in Moscow and/or St. Petersburg outside of our itinerary, please advise us of your itinerary per these visits. If you are Using Frequent Flier Coupons If you are planning to use frequent flier coupons to purchase or upgrade your flights, you must do all of your own ticketing through the frequent flier department of the airline you will be traveling on. Book your flight early since frequent flier seats are limited. Then be sure to send us a photocopy of your exact air itinerary at least 60 days before departure. Reconfirmation of Flights Note that our ground agents will be reconfirming your return flight from Murmansk while you are on the ship. For this purpose, they will collect the relevant flight coupon from you on your arrival; it will be handed back to you, probably along with a boarding pass, prior to disembarkation from the ship on the final morning. Preparing physically for the trip Although a trip to the Arctic is not strenuous, it does require a certain degree of fitness. The landings involve getting in and out of the Zodiac onto the terrain, usually into shallow surf or sometimes on slippery rocks. You will be walking on uneven terrain, rocks, boulders, and snow, all of which can be slippery. There may also be opportunities for longer hikes (1-4 hours) on some shore excursions. Keep in mind that most of the time you will be wearing rubber boots. While the most appropriate footwear for this type of environment, rubber boots are not designed to provide ankle support or facilitate your footing on uneven terrain. Also, living on board a ship requires care in walking, particularly when going up and down stairs or walking on the deck. Always use railings, as the ship may rock unexpectedly, causing you to lose your balance. Additionally, the weather in the Arctic region can change drastically and unexpectedly, causing the temperatures to drop. For all of the above reasons, you need to be in good health and physical condition for this trip. Please remember that the Arctic is a very remote destination and that our trip is an expedition-style cruise. Medical facilities on board the ship are limited. In the event of a serious medical emergency, evacuation may be very difficult or even impossible. Medical matters It's important that we have your medical information for use by the expedition leader on the ship. We have enclosed a Medical History & Certificate for you to complete and return to us (it must be signed by your physician). We need to have your certificate returned to us before we can send your final documents. Please be aware that the Arctic is a very remote destination without sophisticated medical facilities. The ship has a medical officer, USA Emergency Doctor and a small infirmary on board, but medical attention is limited to basic care. Evacuation in the case of severe medical emergencies can be prolonged, difficult, and expensive, if not altogether impossible. There is a helicopter onboard which could be used in case of extreme emergency. Immunizations No immunizations are required at this time to enter Moscow/Murmansk. The standard recommended immunizations currently are: Tetanus Hepatitis A Regulations and recommendations change frequently, so we advise you to check with your local health department or the CDC. Staying Healthy While on the Ship: The water on the ship is safe to drink (you may purchase mineral water in the bar as well), and the food served to you is prepared hygienically by an experienced staff. At Hotels and On Your Own: The tap water at the hotels in Moscow & Murmansk is potable. However, you can buy bottled water at the local stores, if you feel more comfortable. Personal Medical Kit Although there is a medical clinic on board staffed by a doctor, you must bring any personal medications you may need during the trip. Please discuss with your physician what medications you should bring with you, such as antibiotics (Cipro or other), pain killers, cold/flu tablets, allergy medicine (e.g.) epi-pens for allergic reactions), and any prescription or over-the-counter medications you use regularly. Be sure to bring something for motion sickness! Motion Sickness The seas between Murmansk and the North Pole of the Arctic could decidedly be rough depending on sea/weather conditions. Although the ship is stabilized, it is impossible to eliminate all movement. Unless you're certain that you're immune to sea-sickness - and a cruise in the Great Barrier Reef or the Bahamas is not a great indicator! - We strongly suggest you speak to your doctor before you leave home. There are many forms of preventatives on the market today. Wristbands work well for some people, while others may require medication. The scopolamine Apatch@ (available by prescription only and over-the-counter medications such as Dramamine or Bonine are usually quite effective at preventing motion sickness, provided you begin using them before the weather/water gets rough. We strongly recommend that everyone bring some sort of motion-sickness remedy, even if you don't expect to need it! Money Matters You won't need to take a great deal of money on the trip - just enough for souvenirs, airport taxes, and drinks and incidentals on board the ship. Expenses on Board The currency on board the ship is the US dollar. At the end of your cruise, you'll be presented with an accounting of your on-board expenses, including drinks from the bar, laundry, items from the ship's shop, and medical services. Visa, MasterCard, US cash and traveler's checks are accepted forms of payment. Please note: American Express Cards are NOT accepted on board. Prices for drinks may be a bit higher on the ship than what you would expect to pay at home: a full price list is available at the bar. Credit Cards, ATM Cards & Traveler's Checks In Moscow & Murmansk, you can use credit cards to charge purchases such as accommodations, food, and clothing. American Express, Visa, MasterCard, and Diner's Club are accepted. ATM Machines are available in Moscow & Murmansk, but be aware that many ATM machines in Moscow & Murmansk do not recognize PIN codes more than four digits long. If your PIN is five digits or longer, the ATM may refuse your transaction - and keep your CARD! Gratuities You can contribute toward a group tip to be shared among the staff and crew on the ship. We suggest each trip member contribute about $10 per day towards the group tip. Tips can be paid by cash, traveler's checks or credit card at the completion of the voyage when accounts are settled. All tipping is, of course, at your own discretion and you are under no obligation to tip. Weather & Climate During the Arctic Summer, daytime temperature along the Arctic usually range about 15° to 25° F; not as cold as many visitors expect, but windy conditions often make it seem colder. Rain is rare during the summer months, but some sleet or snow is possible. Luggage, Clothing & Travel Accessories You do need good wet-weather gear and need warm clothing. The dress code on board the ship is casual. The ship's crew will carry your luggage from the transfer vehicle to your cabin when we board the ship, and back to the transfer vehicle at the end of the trip. Please make sure that your luggage has tags with your name and address. Baggage tags will be provided with your final information package. Luggage We ask that you bring one duffel bag for your gear, and we suggest a size of about 14” x 30” or 15” x 36”. Make sure your duffel is sturdy and water-resistant. You may bring a suitcase instead, but we recommend duffel because it's easier to store out of the way in your cabin. Daypack It should have a capacity of 1500 or 2000 cubic inches and can double as your carry-on bag. Waterproof Boots You will need a pair of mid-calf to knee high pull-on waterproof boots (no ties or zippers that water can leak through). Stepping out of the Zodiac to shore almost always involves stepping into water, so it's important to have waterproof boots that are high enough to prevent water from gong over the top and into the boots. There is a supply of rubber boots on board the ship which previous passengers have left behind, which you may use. However, we recommend you bring your own boots to ensure proper fit. Inexpensive rubber boots (under $20) can be purchased from work clothing stores, garden supply centers, major sporting good stores, as well as marine supply stores. They should also have good, non-skid soles for walking on slippery rocks and snow. You should purchase boots without a lining (or, with a removable lining), since if the lining gets wet you won't be able to dry them out quickly. You do not need to purchase expensive boots, as you may decide to leave them on the ship at the end of the trip. Please remember, you'll be wearing these boots a lot, so they must be comfortable for extended wear. You need enough room for your toes to freely move with thick socks on or your feet will get very cold due to lack of circulation. Be sure to bring one or two pairs of warm socks when you try your boots on! Clothing The dress code on board is relaxed and casual; you will not need to dress formally for meals. The inside of the ship is well heated, so you will not require special clothing on board. Indeed, you could spend most of your time in light trousers and a t-shirt! However, you'll need comfortable and adequate clothing when you go outside to protect you from cold and possible wet, windy weather. Wildlife viewing requires that you stand fairly still or sit in zodiacs for extended periods of time, sometimes under adverse weather conditions. We recommend that you layer with synthetic clothing (such as polypropylene, Capilene, or pile) or wool. Synthetic fabrics are the most effective barriers against the cold. They provide the best insulation, are light weight, draw perspiration away and dries quickly. We discourage the use of cotton garments in the Arctic conditions. Keep in mind that the level of comfort in cold weather conditions varies from one individual to another, depending on how cold one gets. Please pack accordingly. The Layering System Layered clothing is the appropriate way to dress in the Arctic. This concept involves wearing multiple layers of clothing when it's cold, and removing a layer if you get too warm. There are three essential layers: underwear, insulation, and shell. These can be combined to achieve maximum warmth when needed or used separately or in different combinations depending on the temperature and weather conditions. First Layer Underwear. Your underwear provides basic insulation and wicks the moisture away from your skin. Moisture can cause shills. In the Arctic, you will need mid-weight or heavy-weight thermal top and bottoms made of synthetic fabrics or wool/wool blends. We discourage the use of cotton as it keeps the moisture next to your skin, instead of wicking it away and it doesn't dry as quickly. Polypropylene and Capilene are the synthetic fabrics used for underwear and can be purchased in any outdoor store. Second Layer Insulation provides additional warmth. There are two categories of fibers available: natural fibers, such as wool and down and synthetic fibers such as pile. Wool works very well and is effective even when wet. Down is a great insulator, lightweight and extremely warm. However, if it gets wet it loses its effectiveness and it takes a long time to dry. Synthetics are the most commonly used because they keep you warm even when wet and dry very quickly. Third Layer Waterproof jacket and pants. You may want to bring a Gore-Tex or equivalent parka if you already own one but keep in mind that salt water may clog the pores of expensive, breathable fabrics. We will be providing expedition Parkas to all participants upon boarding the Yamal. Non-breathable rainwear is perfectly acceptable in the Arctic. A good option is to buy a Arain suit@ (jacket and pants) available at fishing or sporting good stores that carry gear for water sports and some garden shops. They are not expensive ($30) they work very well and they can be cleaned easily. This outer layer is the final step in insulating you against the cold and wind. It is important that the jacket has a hood. Underwear Regular underwear.
Synthetics are easier to hand wash and dry.
Pairs of synthetic thermal
underwear top and bottom. We suggest one lightweight, one
mid-weight, and one expedition weight pair, of synthetic fabric such as
polypropylene or Capilene. Wool and wool/synthetic blends are
also suitable.
Sweater/Jacket Heavy-weight sweater or jacket of
synthetic fabric, such as fleece.
Medium weight down or
synthetic-fill jacket (optional)
Foul Weather Gear Waterproof rain/wind parka (must
fit over bulky clothing).
Pair of waterproof rain/wind
pants (must fit over your other pants).
Shirts Long-sleeved shirts
Short-sleeved synthetic or cotton
T-shirts, for the ship or Murmansk
Trousers Pile/fleece pants as your
insulating second layer for shore landings.
Full-length pants to wear on the
ship.
Headwear Wool or pile hat or ski cap (a
balaclava works well).
Neck gaiter (optional)
Sun hat or baseball cap
(optional).
Handwear Gloves or mittens (wool or pile).
Waterproof shell gloves or
mittens (fishing gloves are inexpensive and work well).
Glove liners - excellent to use
under your warm gloves, since you will be able to take photos and
change film while wearing glove liners.
Socks Expedition-weight hiking socks.
Their synthetic/wool blend helps keep your feet warm when wet.
Athletic socks (synthetic for
easy washing and drying) that are suitable for your walking shoes.
(optional) Silk or synthetic
inner socks that can be washed and dried quickly.
Footwear Knee-high waterproof boots for
landing.
Pair of comfortable walking shoes
to wear on the ship and in town. Make sure they have non-skid
soles - this is critical for walking around on deck.
Hiking boots (optional).
You may have opportunities for longer hikes (1-4 hours, depending on
conditions) on some shore excursions; should you choose to participate
in these hikes, hiking boots are more suitable than most waterproof
boots.
Other Items Swimsuit for the sauna and
swimming pool on the ship.
Set of casual city clothes that
are dressier than your cruise clothes.
Travel Accessories Toiletry kit - toothbrush and so
on. Soap is provided on the ship. Women should bring any
feminine products they need. Be sure to bring skin lotion as the
air on the ship is very dry.
Personal first aid kit.
Make sure you bring motion sickness medication.
Sunglasses.
Pair of spare prescription
glasses, prescription sunglasses, or contact lenses.
Sunscreen lotion and lipstick
with at lest SPF 15 rating.
Small padlocks or combination
locks for your duffels.
Plastic bags of various sizes for
keeping things sorted out in your duffel. Zip-lock bags work well
for small items and for keeping camera gear in your daypack dry in the
Zodiacs.
Binoculars - especially handy for
spotting whales or watching birds on sea days.
Optional Travel Accessories Ace bandage or brace if you are
prone to sore knee or ankles.
Camera and plenty of film and
batteries (and a dry bag for zodiac rides).
Repair kit with needle, thread
and safety pins.
Reading and writing material.
Sources for Outdoor Clothing & Equipment There are many excellent sources of outdoor clothing and equipment available through mail-order catalogs and on the Internet. These companies have well-informed staff members who can advise you about clothing and equipment: Altrec.com www.altrec.com Cascade Designs 1-800-531-9531 www.cascadedesigns.com Eagle Creek 1-800-874-9925 www.eaglecreek.com Ex Officio 1-800-644-7303 www.exofficio.com Lowepro 1-707-575-4363 www.lowepro.com TravelSmith 1-800-950-1600 www.travelsmith.com Patagonia 1-800-638-6464 www.patagonia.com Planet Outdoors www.planetoutdoors.com Kelty & Pangaea 1-888-558-9726 www.kelty.com L.

The light quality and conditions constantly change requiring a wide rage of film speeds. Bringing the right camera and film will determine the quality of your photographs of the trip. A good SLR camera with telephoto lens is ideal. Lenses longer than 300mm will require a tripod for good results and may be too cumbersome to lug around. Bring a mixture of fast and slower film. Long lenses require faster film, so consider 200 ISO (ASA) for a larger lens in low-light conditions and uses slower 64 ISO (ASA) film for superior color slides. One disadvantage of low ISO (ASA) film is that you may need a tripod or beanbag to steady the camera during early morning and evening shots. Many people like to bring small pint and shoot cameras for their lighter weight and size. There are also many digital cameras of varying quality that will work as well. Check with your local camera store for specifics. Batteries will fail more quickly than usual in the cold conditions. Keep your camera under your jacket to prolong battery life while ashore or outside on deck. Bring an extra supply of batteries for all your camera equipment. Remember to bring a 220V converter and a round two-prong adapter for your battery charger. A Cautionary Note: On almost every cruise someone will render their camera inoperable for one reason or another with video cameras being the most sensitive. The most common reason is saltwater damage. This usually occurs while on Zodiacs. Although Zodiacs provide incredible photo opportunities, salt water can hit you - and your photo equipment. You should plan on bringing a waterproof dry bag for your camera and accessories or use zip-lock plastic bags. Placing cameras under your clothing or in a backpack can protect them most of the time, but on occasions waves can splash soaking you and your pack. While you are on the trip Hotel Accommodations in Moscow If you've requested us to book hotels for you in Moscow (before or after expedition) we will send you vouchers (including fax and phone numbers for the hotel) in your Final Information Package. The Ship As on all Steve Currey adventures, the atmosphere and dress code on board is casual and relaxed. Meals are served in the dining room which is large enough to accommodate everyone at one sitting. Breakfast is buffet style with a selection of breads, cereals, fruits and some hot dishes. All other meals are served by the friendly and attentive stewards. Our Russian chefs take special delight in preparing a wide choice of cuisine including seafood and poultry and there is always a vegetarian option. Please let us know in advance if you have any special dietary requirements and we will do our best to meet your needs. Tea, coffee and hot chocolate (self-serve) are available at most hours of the day or night in the lounge or dining room. An afternoon tea snack is served most days. You will normally have access to the bridge 24 hours a day for observing the beauty of the Arctic and there are also excellent open deck viewing areas. Cabin Service Cabins are cleaned on a daily basis and towels replaced upon request or twice weekly. There is no food service to the cabins. Bar Service There is a fully stocked bar on board with wine, beer and a basic selection of liquor available. Drinks purchased at the bar will be added to your on-board account to be paid at the end of the voyage. Laundry Laundry service will be available on the ship. A laundry list with prices will be provided on board. There are no facilities for dry cleaning. Valuables A security safe, controlled by the hotel manager, is available on the ship should you wish to deposit valuables for the duration of the trip. We recommend that you do not bring any non-essential valuables on the trip. Exercise Room There is a small exercise room located on the second deck with limited equipment (an exercise bike, rowing machine, and some weights). If you plan to use the exercise room be sure to bring shorts, t-shirt and sneakers. Communications The radio room on the ship is equipped with a satellite telephone. Fax and e-mail for urgent communication use only. Details on how to contact the ship in case of an emergency will be sent with your final documents. The cost of outgoing communications will be about US $10 per minute. Electricity Electricity on board the ship and in Russia in general is 220 volts. Outlets are the standard European two round pin variety. If you are planning to bring a hair dryer or electric shaver you will need to bring a converter and a European adaptor. Smoking Smoking is permitted only in designated cabins providing all passengers in the cabin consent, and in some outside areas. It is not permitted in the dining room, lounge area, library or lecture theater. For safety and environmental reasons, under no circumstances should cigarette butts be thrown overboard. Smoking is not permitted on shore or in Zodiacs. Safety All safety provisions on board the ship meet the International SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) standards. The ship carries a fleet of covered lifeboats, all equipped for polar survival. Cabins are equipped with a life preserver for each passenger. You are required to wear a life preserver while in the Zodiacs and must have them on before you begin descending the ship's gangway to the Zodiac. You will be required to participate in an emergency lifeboat drill your first evening on the ship and to attend a briefing on Zodiac safety before the first shore excursion. Shore Excursions Every morning a 'daily program' will be posted on the ship's notice board. This will inform you of the intended talks, documentaries, feature films, cruise schedule and possible shore excursions via Zodiac and/or helicopter. These may be subject to change. In addition to the posting of the daily schedule, the shore excursions will be announced over the ship's public address system. There is a speaker in every cabin, inside public areas and outside on the deck. This announcement will include the name of the destination, what we expect you will see, how long the landing will be, what type of landing we expect (e.g. rocky, sandy, icy), how long we expect to stay there and the likely weather conditions. In addition, shore landings will probably be preceded by a detailed briefing during the previous meal. Visitor's Guidelines In an effort to preserve the fragile environment, we ask that you follow the Arctic Treaty guidelines. Your expedition leader will distribute a full copy of the guidelines on board and explain them to you in a briefing. Here are some simple rules to keep in mind: Maintain sufficient distance from
wildlife. In general if animals react to your presence, you are
too close. Your expedition leader will review specific guidelines.
Move slowly around wildlife; fast
movements are startling.
Be alert and watchful wherever
you are walking to avoid stepping on nests or plant life.
Never touch any bird or
mammal. Never harass them for the sake of a good photo,
Keep noise to a minimum.
Never remove anything from a site
including historical objects.
Do not litter.
While you are in Moscow & Murmansk Security Moscow & Murmansk is fairly safe to walk around in but it has problems as do all big cities of the world. You will be wise to follow some simple safety precautions: We encourage you to take taxis, day or night. Leave valuables such as traveler's checks, passport and air tickets locked in the hotel safe - don't carry them with you because purse snatching does occur. Carry just a reasonable amount of spending money and a credit card stashed in a money belt or hidden pouch (bags and purses attract attention). Trip Payments & Cancellation Fees Here is a recap of some information that appears in the back of our catalog just so you won't have to go look it up again: Forfeit 25% trip deposit if
cancelled on or before June 26, 2006
Forfeit 75% trip deposit if
cancelled on or before December 26, 2006
Forfeit 100% trip deposit if
cancelled after March 26, 2007
We recommend that you purchase our optional travel insurance package to avoid cancellation fees in the case of a medical emergency. Final Information Package About three weeks before departure, we will send you your Final Information Package with documents, hotel phone/fax numbers, airline tickets (if we are arranging your flights), and rendezvous instructions for meeting the group. We hope you are getting excited in anticipation of your trip! And thanks again for placing your trust in Steve Currey Expeditions.
