Famous female explorers Ann Bancroft and Liv Arnesen are on the move again. This time, they will attempt an unsupported trek from Ward Hunt to the North Pole.
One can remember that, back in 2005, they were part of the teams which were forced to be evacuated by the French Tour Operator Cerpolex, due to problems between French and Russians bureaucracies.
This time, they will start from the other side of the Ocean, leaving from Ward Hunt (Canada) and heading towards the geographical North Pole, then try to reach the French sloop Tara, freezed into the Artic ice pack and drifting on the ocean.
