NORTH POLE - ARCTIC CHALLENGE

The Finnish expedition reached the North Pole on 29 April 2006. It planted the Finnish flag onto an ice block in the middle of the frozen Arctic ice field as a mark of accomplishing their goal. Over a period of two months the polar explorers skied a total of 800 km and encountered nearly impassable zones of rubble ice, crossed open water and survived free- zing cold down to –40°C without outside support.Only 32 people in the world have succeeded in the same before them.

New book tells the fascinating story of the historical expedition from the first stages of planning to reaching the final goal. Richly illustrated in full colour, it is an eye-catching book.

It is about Finnish resolve and courage, recounting the experiences and moods of the expedition from along the way and including new excerpts from the journal and factual articles on the Arctic and exploration.

See sample pages from SAMPLEBOOK or separate pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
