Difficulty and participation:This is an expedition to a remote area that often experiences extreme weather and low temperatures, and thus the inherent risks of such an activity exist.  Whilst helicopters can cover medical emergencies, it should be understood that periods of bad weather may prevent successful extraction from the area for days at a time.  Some aspects of the expedition may involve strenuous walking/skiing pulling relatively heavy loads, and team members should be aware that this is for an extended period of time.  Team members should also be willing to help and participate with the day-to-day running of the expedition, including helping to pitch/strike camps, cooking, washing up and so on.
