IS THIS TRIP FOR YOU
The trip is not intended to have as many check marks or sights to be seen crossed off in a short period of time. The ‘way of the north’ or of the Inuit people is to take things as they come, to relax, enjoy the moment – be it a sunny or foggy day – to appreciate where you are in the moment, and fall into the laid -back lifestyle of the Arctic people. It is assumed that participants have enough resources within themselves to enjoy the unique solitude of the Arctic and the free time provided. If this philosophy is alien to you, it is suggested that participation would be a mistake. Of course, good health is fundamental to travel into any remote region, yet despite this, all participants will be required to obtain evacuation travel insurance. With that, and flexibility of attitude as an equally important prerequisite, age should not be considered as a deterrent.
Finally, your Inuit guide may be required to hunt to feed his dog teams. This is the way of the north and part of the subsistence hunting traditional way of life of the Arctic. It can be very enlightening and rewarding to watch the ‘hunter in action’ while on the land however, if hunting is offensive to you then this trip is not for you.
