In August 2008, Patrick Peters (from Luxembourg) and Pirhuk guide Matt Spenceley made a coast-to-coast, kite-assisted crossing of the Greenland Icecap. Starting in Nagtivit fjord on the east coast and finishing in Eqi Sermia 17.5 days later, they encountered variable winds and some testing conditions - rough ice, crevasses and meltwater - in the coastal regions.
Patrick has just completed a book covering both that trip and his expedition on the Arctic Ocean back in 2003. He's just sent us a copy and it's come out beautifully. Book orders can be made at:
