We will use Svalbard as our departure point just as Amundsen, André and Byrd did before us for our attempt to ski to the Geographic North Pole. We depart from Longyearbyen on an Antonov 74 and travel 600 miles to Ice Station Barneo. We then travel via MI-8 Helicopter to one degree (70 miles out) from the Geographic North Pole. Depending on daily ice-drift, we’ll ski and camp for approximately a week on the top of the world.
