French adventurers Pascal Hemon and Philippe Garcia on the final stretch of their trek from Gameti, Northwest Territories to Kugluktuk, Nunavut based on the novel, The Fur Country, by Jules Verne. Over the course of the 35 day trek that covered 450 km, the brave duo each pulled a pulka with supplies weighing over 90 kg while encountering wolves, arctic cold temperatures, and forbidding conditions that limited their progress to only two kilometres a day. http://dnvphoto.zenfolio.com/
