Photo - @andy_bardon /// The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is America’s “Atlantis”. Everybody has heard about it in the news, but most people don’t have a clue as to what it looks like. In April 2014 @natgeo ‘s Expeditions Council sent a group of experienced adventurers led by @kitdski to the highest mountains in this most remote region of our nation to gather scientific data to be used to create 3D maps made with cutting edge technology and precision accuracy. We found stunning mountains, challenging climbing & skiing, and an abundance of wildlife along the way as we gathered data /// @kitdski is pictured here crossing one of the many frozen lakes on the way to our first mountain objective. She’s got a week’s worth of food, a tent, a sleeping bag, and all the gear she needs right behind her on a sled /// @avyinstitute @natgeocreative @goalzero #humanpower #solarpower by natgeo
