If everything will go according to the plan, in 24 hours our team will be on the way to the Wrangel Island cruising across the Arctic Ocean.
It been extremely complicated preparations for the expedition, and many times it felt that the expedition will not happen. 2020 is not the best year in general, and for complicated Arctic expeditions as well.
10 years ago we already made an expedition to the island, but back then it was "still 90th" in this part of Russia. And we didn't have any permissions or authorities checking on us. We just took our boats and started going. This time we are spending months on getting all paperwork ready, and we are still not entirely fullfilling all the requirements. Plus there was several other issues which made the expedition nearly cancel. When we are back from the expedition I will sit and write a full story on the expedition. Now unfortunately there is still hundreds of things not to forget to do/pack before we depart.
Also here you can track our movement.
