Alaskan adventurers Bjørn Olson and Kim McNett undertake a fat-bike and packraft expedition entirely above the Arctic Circle. Along their route, they experience abundant wildlife, stunning grandeur, days of ideal traveling, abnormally warm conditions, and sobering observations of global warming's impact at this high latitude.

Absolutely love this. Their expertise, enthusiasm, dedication, and commitment to these trips is very much respected and appreciated. I love these landscapes and the perspective at which they wander over them. I miss living in the Arctic and hope to return again soon. Also, I dig the music! 🤘

I absolutely love your art that appears throughout your story. It has so much life and vitality. Thank you for taking the time to film so we can tag along!

Ok, sorry about the snarky comment regarding the reverb music at the start. I really did enjoy the video. Good on you guys for telling the story for all to understand what's happening with our world.

This is documentary quality. From the video footage to the dialogue and art work of the journal, just compelling. The music at the beginning was a little distracting but didn’t ruin it for me. Epic! Nice job!

If you don’t get why this music is used, you don’t get what this video is about

Love seeing fat bike adventures!! Hope to get back to Alaska some time. The impacts covered are definitely concerning.

Good video without the terrible background music......

@JimAdventures... Жыл бұрын

Yes! I had to switch off the video after about 10 seconds of some of the worst sounding guitar music I’ve ever heard. Re-edit this without the soundtrack please!

It’s fine after the first couple minutes of death metal whatever.

This is such an amazing film. Loved the message too. :D

Great stuff, thank you for sharing. Music selection is not up to the story though, especially opening score is terrible, around 3:10 it gets awful and it looks/sounds like the background music plays main part here, not story.

Beautiful! Impressive that you made the ride, did some data collection, art, and filming all the way. Guess I'll have to go back and paddle the Cape. Sounds like North to South will be the best way to go for a lot of reasons.

Wow amazing! We just did some Arctic exploration in Norway and Svalabrd but Alaska looks insanely good!

Lovely video. Thank you for this. But the background music (oppressive and annoying) does not make it an experience as pleasant as it could be. Too bad. (And don't get me wrong, doom metal is great. But not here. It doesn't fit. My humble opinion.)

Is this main picture a standing Thule whale bone house? This is a perfect movie for an archaeologist/fat biker/birder.

Soft soil and the natural erosion of the sea side cliffs, does in fact mean that gravity, wind and water still does work as our God intended. Climate change, each and every morning and evening. 😀 as the earth spins.

Like those fossil fueled derived bicycle tires, paint ect. I do ride bikes, and I drive automobiles, and I drive a commercial truck transporting your McDonalds products that destroy your health.
