In 20 June 2008 Alan Brook and Kobi Sade begun an unsupported sea kayaking expedition from Kullorsuaq in north-west Greenland. Kullorsuaq, which is located almost 1000km north of the arctic circle, was reached by helicopter flying out of Upernavik. After paddling northwards for a few days to a location where the Greenlandic icecap approaches the ocean, the two kayakers turned south exploring a region of remote wilderness and sparse Greenlandic villages for a period of about 4 weeks. The Blog describe the journey and brings stories and pictures of this high arctic region..
