| North Pole - Ultimate Adventure Flight |
Few places on Earth have stirred the hearts and minds of explorers more than the Geographic North Pole. Following many failed expeditions, by sled, balloon, airship and ship, the Pole was finally witnessed in 1926, but it was 1948 before anyone actually stood there.
On this extraordinary flight expedition, pioneered by Arctic Odysseys in the mid-1970’s, we will follow the general routes of the historic explorers, Peary & Cook, landing on the polar ice cap as close to 90 degrees north as sea ice conditions permit. On the journey, we will visit Canada’s High Arctic communities of Resolute and Grise Fiord, the Eureka High Arctic weather station, and Qaanaaq, Greenland, the world’s most northern Inuit town. We will also travel by dog team among ice bergs the size of skyscrapers and by snowmobile to visit ancient Thule culture and Inuit sites. This is a truly unique lifetime experience, led by a seasoned polar escort.
