20:50 ARMS OF THE NORTH VOL.2
Country: Czech Republic; Length: 20 min; Director: Petr Němeček; Language: Czech
Undoubtedly the most difficult and instructive winter trip we have taken. We skied 430 km from Finnish Kilpisjärvi to Norwegian Sulitjelma. As is our good custom, we were harnessed to a sledge in which we carried all our provisions. What was it like to wander for 25 days in the winter beyond the Arctic Circle between Finland, Norway and Sweden? Often in the wilderness and treading your own path?"
