The Arctic Circle: Land of the Ice Bears

North.

We are on our way to the Arctic Circle via Norway. Soon we will be as far north as one can go without an icebreaker ship — 350 miles north of Norway’s northernmost point. Svalbard is a group of islands punctuated by massive icebergs, deep fjords, and ice-capped mountains. And, it is the best place on the planet to see the master of the Arctic, the polar bear.

Lisa and I hope to capture photographs of those polar bears along with walruses, arctic foxes and a variety of arctic birds. We’ll share those with you as we capture them on our cameras.

Before we go north, we will make stops in Copenhagen, Denmark and Oslo, Norway. We’ll then fly to Svalbard and board the National Geographic ship, the Resolution.

Join us as we experience a world we have never before seen. You can subscribe to our blog by entering your e-mail on the right side of this page.

See you in Copenhagen!
