Alone Across the Arctic

À propos de ce film

Acclaimed explorer Adam Shoalts brings a canoe, his full repertoire of wilderness survival skills on an extraordinary trek across approximately 4,000 kilometres of the remote North. The intrepid Shoalts aims to cross the breadth of the northernmost wilds of the country, from the Yukon to Nunavut in a race against the elements: he must navigate treacherous and uncharted waterways before the onset of winter renders the terrain impassable. Dubbed one of the greatest living explorers and 'Canada's Indiana Jones' by the Toronto Star, in 2016 Shoalts was named a national champion of the Trans-Canada Trail and in 2018 Explorer-in-Residence of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. A must-see for anyone who has ever considered a wilderness adventure in the Far North!

Notes et avis

He didn't cross the Arctic. He went to the middle then veered off completely. It's more like, Kinda Crossing The Arctic, But Not Really. Good luck trying to follow in his footsteps! Never gonna happen. 1 star cuz he wasn't eaten by Polar Bears.

I thoroughly enjoyed Adam's documentary. His solo journey and amazing documentation/film footage gave me a glimpse of what it means to be an explorer executing and finishing his solo journey. Adam's candid commentary of the sights and sounds of this breath-taking journey enriched my life.
