Baffin Expedition
Seven weeks away from civilization, on the way with a sled and snowkites and exposed to the danger of ice bears. This is part of the next expedition by two extreme climbers, Stefan Glowacz and Robert Jasper, who are exploring Baffin Island (Canada) beginning April 20, searching for undiscovered rock faces.
Untouched locations in our world are becoming rare. Most of the formerly white spots on the maps are checkered, explored and already populated. But there are still some left: The mystic spots on earth which have never been visited by human beings. Stefan Glowacz, Robert Jasper, Klaus Fengel, Holger Heuber and Mariusz Hoffmann want to explore the Canadian North Coast and Greenland, and the fifth largest island in the world, Baffin Island.
In the mid-1990s, American photographer Eugen Fisher flew over Baffin Island a few times. His aerial photography is the only proof of the jewel of rocks that have never been explored and which are waiting for a new generation of climbers. The goal of the expedition is to discover the treasure and to start exploring it.
