Destination Home

The boys are returning home. After 62 days of epic scenery, monster Taimen, killer bees and mud up to the fender, they embark on their final mission, Destination Home.

Getting home is no easy task; they must drive straight through 30 hours of wilderness to get to civilization. Once in Ulaanbaatar they will have two days to inventory their gear, get travel plans confirmed and shower the first layer of funk off (the guys will have to rinse and repeat several more times for effectiveness.)

After 48 hours, they take the train into Beijing where they will spend the night; only to get up 3 to 4 hours later for the homeward stretch. Somewhere between Beijing and home, they will cheat time and gain an extra day; time travel AEG style.

Once they return state side, October 20th, the production wheels will turn and grind to crank out TBD III Mongolia; AEG’s most epic film to date. The days in Mongolia are over but the journey continues. Now it’s our turn to experience the adventure of a lifetime through the eyes of a Trout Bum.

Base camp out.

Smooth and safe travels gentlemen. Those of us here on the Patagonia fish team are anxious and excited. The Film tour kick off here in Ventura is looked forward too. Keep posting as you make your way to Beijing. Onward! Destination home.

Thank you so much. We have arrived home safe despite the 3 full days it took to arrive home.
The Trans Siberian Rail was quite an experience from UB to Beijing. 30+ hours.
Thanks for all the support!
