by inuit

Crossing frozen arctic regions is not an easy task. One of the big problems is a supply of fresh un frozen water. Soon after you left base the water u hold in your bottle will freeze. Always carry special heating tools to melt snow or ice. Do not eat snow!! it will chill your inside organs and can cause Hypothermy. The photo was taken one hour after we left Qanaaq still have liquid water in the bottle.
