Equipments of this trip



Equipments of this trip are typical long distance snowmachine trip gear with drilling rig. We plan to use "Skidoo expedition (4 stroke!)" (VECO support this program and trip) with Siglin sled. Roger Siglin design this beautiful and efficient sled for his numerous expedition in North America. We carry arctic oven tent (picture), however, most likely we will stay in schools. We bring a lot of frozen food and ice cream! Frozen food will be cooked by muffler of snowmachine.
