Northwest Passage Adventure

**UniqueStranger** · 08-14-2012, 04:13 PM

I thought this an interesting adventure and wanted to share it with everyone. Some people have all the adrenalin rushes, considering if the ice shifts they may be in big trouble.

Quote: Three adventurers are attempting to sail a small boat through the Northwest Passage, following a route that has only been used by icebreakers.

The crew — a Canadian, an American and a Swede — hope to make it the rest of the way through the Parry Channel by the end of the week.

On a boat named Belzebub?

Not sure I'd try that...

That's a pretty bold adventure considering they don't know if they can make it or not. That takes guts, it's going to start getting colder here pretty soon as well.

Yes, I was wondering about the naming of their boat too.

Exactly. I wish them all the luck in that case.

**JayRodney** · 08-14-2012, 08:17 PM

They'll need it.

Crazy people.

So glad I'm not going.

Yep, to each their own AS. I don't think these adventurers partake of mind altering substances, at least not on the 'high' seas.

İmage

An emergency out there could really be a buzzkill.

**yankees** · 08-15-2012, 03:48 AM

Yikes, I wish them well.

Huh...?

I just detest being cold.
God knows I love ol' Finland to death -
but I'll never ever really like winter.
Hell for us skinny guys.
With or without the ganja, man.

That's why those three adventurers have very harsh weather gear.

After helping the remote village people drag the narwahl whale kill to camp, they could have asked the villagers if they had any extra muk luks for sale.

That'll work for skinny people too I imagine!

Yes, wrap AS up in seal/beaver skins and he'll be fine.
