And safer as a forced landing in tundra is much safer than one in the Rockies.
I have been contemplating a simple one to Cambridge bay for years and will use David’s CD for resources.

Adding adventure to aviation is what it is all about and of which we need a lot more of.

This crew and the their future documentary should be on PBS and the National Geographic Channel.

Whata great idea!!!

Heck, Bill Morris and I did a good bit of this trip in a Cessna 182 on wheels several years ago – Iqaluit, Broughton Island, Clyde River,
Eureka, Alert, Resolute, Cambridge Bay, etc. In fact, we did several trips and without the massive support system involved in this effort.
The Canadian High Arctic is beautiful. You can see these trips
