Description

Mike Horn has gone along the Arctic Circle alone for 27 months, 20,000 km, without any motorized transportation. He has faced ice storms, temperatures from -70°C to 15°C, polar bears, a fire that destroyed most of his equipment and nearly burned him alive and he was the first man to cross entire Siberia on foot. But first of all, Arktos is a human tale. He meets an Inuit who teaches him to build an igloo in 20 minutes; Vassia, an elderly Russian fisher; among many others. After all, Mike met himself.
