A team of road travelers in two off-road vehicles Nissan Patrol Y61 and Toyota LandCruiser Prado 78 set out to reach the very edge of Eurasia - Cape Chelyuskin.
Four people loaded their jeeps and left from Moscow and Novosibirsk.
By road we got from Moscow to Novosibirsk, then to Bratsk, Ust-Kut. Further there was 900 km of cheerful winter road to Mirny and a year-round road to Udachnoye. There we visited the Udachny quarry, where diamonds are mined. Further north there were only winter roads. The Anabar winter road in Yakutia took us to Yuryung-Khai, the northernmost settlement in Yakutia and the entire Far East. The winter roads were over. We went into the tundra to the west towards Khatanga. Half a thousand kilometers of wild winter road along the rivers and tundra of the Krasnoyarsk region and we reached Khatanga. We found out that there is no and will not be any diesel fuel. We managed to buy half a thousand liters of diesel fuel in Khatanga sea port and we are going to the tundra of Taimyr. Ahead is 1000 kilometers to Cape Chelyuskin. No life, no people and no chance for help.
Along the Novaya River we reached the northernmost forest in the world Ary-Mas, crossed several lakes and reached the fishermen's base on Taimyr Lake. There we refueled several hundred liters of solar oil, had a rest and went further into Byrranga mountains. On the way there was an abandoned point of geological exploration and Middendorf's cave. For the first time we fell into ice and had to pull the car out of the trap for about half an hour
