Hi! Did you succeed on getting all the info needed? Let me know if North Pole is still of your interest and you need some more info Here is my video on our expedition to North pole in 2014 where I took a group of guys there https://vimeo.com/153853329

Very impressive! Thank you for sharing this incredible experience and photos, were there any videos shot during that expedition? At the moment we are looking at attracting one of the film crews to come along and do a documentary, perhaps some of your materials may be very useful at some point of time if everything goes according to plan

We certainly do, thanx for this remark It has been studied thoroughly and successful jumps have been performed already

Thanx for the comment. You are absolutely correct. At the same time I would object abit about the "hate" part, both Arctic and Antarctica has been successfully open for tourists for many years. Tourist stream does not interfere much with research and scientific stations. At the same time it gives this unique opportunity to explore these very remote locations of the planet. Riskwise, any extreme activity has got to do with managed risk, hasn't it? :)

Yes thats right, any kind of operations in remote locations such as Antarctica and Arctica are very expensive, thats what in turn forms the price.

Hi GD, thanx alot :) if you love winters you can also consider the most northern part of the planet :)), The North pole, Im part of that expedition crew as well. It kicks off and the end of March each year - although being mid spring the frost is still in full swing there (with down to -40C) :)) At least there you are "head up" :) ps sorry for the off-topic
