Looks like the real deal.
The guy in the anorak was a Senior Geologist for the Anyusk Geological Expedition in the closed Chukotka Oblast in the Russian Far East. 67 degrees north.
We are at the Kupol mine, year one of exploration.
We flew there 250 km in Mil 8 helicopters.
He drove there in his personnel carrier.
Across the tundra, no roads.
He is the real deal and 10 times the field geologist that I ever was.
And he is wearing Soviet era canvas gear like this Gorka gear.
If it's good enough for Slava Zagoskin then it's good enough for a wimp like me.
