Destinations Arctic Expeditions Experienced backpackers who want perfect hiking conditions will greatly appreciate the Arctic. The visibility is 100 miles, the air is pure and clean, and there is 24 hours of sunlight. The tundra is rugged and scenic.
Wildlife is abundant.
Each expedition is uniquely tailored to the interests and abilities of the participants. Several months of planning and preparation are required and you will be provided guidance as appropriate. Destinations may include Iqaluit, Pond Inlet, Pangnirtung, Eureka, and other destinations in the High Arctic. This will be our fifth expedition. Bar Harbor, Maine A quaint maritime town on Mount Dessert Island, next to Acadia National Park is very pleasant in the hot summer months.
