What better way to propel yourself across the Greenland ice cap using a sustainable source of energy: wind. By using kites it’s possible to reach speeds of over 60 km/h (over 35 mph), while towing a heavy sled with food and equipment behind you. The only downside is that if you fall - by itself being a rather uncomfortable experience at those speeds - it’s quite likely you will be run over by the sled, since it has no brakes. Enjoy the ride!
