Summary:
"Four seasoned adventurers navigate a sophisticated, high-tech rowboat across the
Northwest
Passage
. One of the "last firsts" remaining in the
adventure
world, this journey is only possible because of the dramatic impacts of global warming in the high Arctic, which provide an ironic opportunity to draw attention to the growing urgency of climate change. The team repeatedly face life-threatening danger from storms unparalleled in their ferocity and unpredictability and bears witness to unprecedented changes in the Arctic habitat and inhabitants, while weathering gale-force vitriol from climate change deniers who have taken to social media to attack them and undermine their efforts. Author Kevin Vallely is an architect, adventurer and member of the Explorer's Club.
