Arctic

Have you ever felt that relentless urge to set new limits, to discover new lands, and to push the envelope just a bit? Maybe you?ve been hearing the call of the Arctic. For thousands of years, this wonderfully desolate landscape has been home to the bravest of souls. Its challenging climate has fascinated scientists and fueled storytellers for centuries. Between the Icelandic sagas and the more modern legends of the North Pole, the Arctic has often been described as the ends of the earth.


Refusing most attempts at industrialization, the Arctic remains virtually untouched and offers some of the cleanest air found anywhere on earth. Nature?s splendor can be found in every direction, from vast sheets of ice colliding together on the Arctic Ocean to the jagged remains of mountains that surrendered to unforgiving glaciers. But the Arctic isn?t all glaciers and tundra. You can find plenty of culture thriving within the volcanic stretches of Iceland or the indigenous villages of coastal Greenland. And your pulse will quicken with your first sighting of a polar bear or a narwhal whale. With so much to offer, the Arctic lets the explorer in you take over as you discover nature?s outer limits.
