The Arctic Night – A Survival Workshop

After meeting the clients, the guide will take them to suitable premises for a theory workshop about Arctic nature and Arctic survival skills and, introducing both the traditional and contemporary techniques. Survival instructor will introduce the relevant gear, such as sleeping bags and mats, clothing items, give insight information about various materials and their suitability for challenging environment. Also clothing items for the extreme cold and various stove systems will get discussed.

Going out. Weather conditions allowing the survival instructor will present how to build a quinzee. It's a traditional snow shelter, made by hollowing out a pile of settled snow, a well-proven method of surviving the Arctic night. Clients are expected to participate to build their own quinzee. It will take a couple of hours for a group.

Group gets prepared for the night-stay in the quinzee. The guide will monitor the night. In case of emergency or if the clients requests so, he/she can be relocated into a warm back up building closeby. At the wake up some warm drinks and a nutritious morning snack will be served. The adventure will end as the guide will walk the clients back to civilization.

Once-in-a-lifetime experience. Adventurous though safe day and night in the Arctic wilderness, under the stars and possible Northern Lights. Building a quinzee and sleeping in snow, rather comfortably.
