Sverdrup Pass Ski Expedition
LOCATION(S):
Ellesmere Island
SEASON:
April/May
One of our guests wanted to undertake a backcountry skiing expedition unlike any other. He’s skied the usual spots in Scandinavia, Siberia, western Canada, etc and approached us to ski a totally unique area. After three generations of exploring the Canadian Arctic, we turned to Richard’s trip notes of a route across Ellesmere Island that he’d “only done twice” and was “one of the coolest places to ski”. Enter Sverdrup Pass on Ellesmere Island. A 14-day ski expedition across one of the northernmost mountain ranges on the planet that had it all - epic mountains, stunning glaciers, polar bears, incredible history and more.
