One Ocean passed through Bellot Strait to Fort Ross, where we spent a night before continuing east. This was a momentous day for the One Ocean team. The morning of our crossing, the golden sunrise lit up Bellot Strait, illuminating our pathway as we approached its mouth.
Crossing through Bellot Strait was a moment Project Director, Jennifer Dalton, had dreamed of ever since hearing stories from Mark and Herb about their experience on the 2009/10 AtA expedition. Listening to them reminisce, she knew instantly—it was a moment she had to experience.
