The application for the Special Use Permit for Midway has now been edited, and now proposes a period of the second half of Febrero and will be submitted this week. Two things now need to happen: (1) we need more operator interest, and (2) we need more donations to the expedition PayPal page(KH6VV[@]outlook.com)'. | 1523 |
