North Pole Winter Expedition 2006

In mid January the two well-known explorers, Mike Horn and Borge Ousland, will be heading off on the first-ever attempt to arrive at the North Pole during the winter. This involves a 1000 Km walk on skis from the northernmost point of Siberia to the 99th latitude during the darkest and coldest months of the year. They believe it will take 67 days to arrive at the North Pole and that they can get there before the sun rises over the horizon.
