Here's an idea of what to expect: It will be brutally cold, very remote and very demanding on you and your equipment. If it isn't frozen there will be quite a bit of mud and rutted roads. You can make this trip in a stock 4x4, but we would recommend that you have good mud terrain or all terrain tires.
How to Join:
There is a 10 vehicle limit, so head over to
