Last chance! For several months we at the Tektite Source = (http://TektiteSource.com) have been working to get some adventurers = together for a trip into the Libyan Desert glass strewn field in = southeastern Egypt. We still need a few more folks to get the trip = confirmed. The plan is to make the two week trip during late = February-Early March, 2003 in order to catch the best weather window. = The cost will be about $2500 per person, not including your arrangements = to reach and depart Cairo. Logistics will be handled by = http://www.fjexpeditions.com/. These folks have been leading = expeditions into the region mostly to look at rock art, etc. This will = be the first trip focused exclusively on Libyan Desert glass. Visit = their site for details, and feel free to contact them directly with = questions. The Tektite Source is not in this for profit----we just want = to go and need at least six more team members if we are to arrange a = trip that emphasizes collecting. Other expeditions offered by this = organizer typically spend a half day or so looking for LDG if the area = happens to fall on their route. This is a major adventure trip, involving about five days cross-country = travel through sand seas with dunes up to 300m tall, ONE WAY. We'll = spend about 4 days in the collecting area, then return if we have enough = fuel and water to make it out---- We need to finalize the team (limited by logistics to 8 to 10 = individuals only, first come, first served) within the next few weeks, = so let us and fjexpeditions know if your are interested.
