I will be part of a group that is planning a month ( or more
), long expedition to Chile and Argentina.  We will be
traveling in remote areas and will have one or more EPIRBs
to use as a last resort if we need emergency medical care or
outside help.  Although it is extremely unlikely that we
would ever need an emergency evacuation of one of the team
members, if needed it might be $$$$$$$expensive!  I know
travel insurance for routine travel is cheap and easily
available, but what companies are willing to insure an
expedition style trip, and what type of cost might we expect
have to pay?  Any specific insurance
contacts/recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
