Inspiring Explorers

From Nights, 7:12 pm on 7 November 2017

The Antarctic Heritage Trust specialises in restoring the historic huts of Antarctica's explorers - and the things they left inside them. But there latest venture involves the ice cap at the other end of the world - Greenland. The trust is looking for Australasian volunteers aged 20 to 35 - to cross Greenland, on skis - pulling a heavy sled - in honour of the Norwegian explorer, Fridtjof Nansen. We speak to Trust Executive Director Nigel Watson and previous inspiring explorer Isobel Ewing.
