Testimonials
Expedition365’s Polar Training Course was a fantastically informative and intensive program. It gave two winter rookies, who didn’t even know how to ski, the knowledge and experience to later cross the Greenland Icecap. The mixture of theory and practical based learning gave us the best chance to learn, adapt and remember important lessons needed for polar travel. Carl was an incredible guide who assessed our abilities and tailored the program to suit. He made sure we were challenged and could provide his own invaluable polar experience to situations. The entire team at Haugastol were absolutely lovely and warming. It was by far the best in knowing  what awaited you for dinner and dessert after a long day on the ice!
