White Horizon - Kite Greenland

The 2026 Whitehorizon expedition is officially over. All participants both on the ice cap and 'back offices' are safely back where they belong. Looking at the progress on the track it all went smoothly, however behind the scenes things were happening. The diversion to DYE 2 was a result of wind conditions developing. Fighting up-wind with fully loaded pulks is not ideal, better to enjoy some nice downwind looping. And as a bonus James got to enjoy DYE 2 before deciding to return to Kangar with Haakon. Heading North were Mari, Chris and Camilla who really got to enjoy the Ice Cap on its best terms. It all went smooth until Camp 10, then the weather office went 'off line'! Some 'emergency plumbing' (stent) was urgently needed, but not available on the island. Luckily it got fixed by a ferry trip and a welcoming hospital at he mainland, but the team was without their normal forecast for a few days until I came back around camp 18. Most important we got them down to the Bowdon fjord and to Quaanaq safe and sound. Thank you all fore following us on another epic Whitehorizon expedition.

Camp 20, the end of what I believe has been one of the fastest Kangar-DYE 2- Quaanaq trips in history. And not quite without incidents both on the ice and off ice. amp20-Sea ice!We did it!Kited down 40km in snow and whiteout,then then sun came out just as rebreather the top of the mountains into Bowdoin fjord.Hiken out for 7km, and worked our way down «hell hill»- little snow this year but we all got down in one piece! Happy crew with stunning views waiting for a sled ride out tmrw.

They seems to be on the move, but might be a bit slow. Camilla reported 35 cm snowfall last night!

Camp 19, from here it goes dowhill! Camp19-just under 50km to go.Wind died,waited for hours watching beautiful mountains and fjords- then - snow came first.A lot of it! We wait here until tomorrow.Complete whiteout and a long day!

The team is off on their misson. Might be some tricky winds today, but we hope for the best.

All smiles from Camp 18 after a monster run yesterday. Camilla: Camp18-230km closer.Wow,we flew the last bit.Wonderful terrain and snow.Chris in the lead and Mari superfast.These two are amazing!Tired legs but happy minds.Greenland at its best.We’re below 2000m and it goes downhill from here💫

Back office is Back In Office! Might be slightly off-line due to medication, but will try not to send them to Donald at Puffnick! Space center.

Camp17-only 3-4 ms but we managed to get 80km before it died.It will be a race to the finish with only ourselves and our minds.430km to go and not the best forecast in a few days so need to do a lot in 2 days.Saw polar fox tracks today.Tested rifle (it works)incase bigger animals are around now.
