Crossing a frozen pond in the backcountry can be dangerous — but with the right systems, the risk can be managed. In this clip from our Baker’s Brook expedition in Newfoundland, Steve explains how we assess changing conditions while skiing across the ice — checking thickness every few feet and using techniques that reduce both the chances of breaking through and the consequences if it happens.

Giorno 14 - attraversiamo DI NUOVO l’oceano Atlantico Oggi vi portiamo un po’ di buonumore. Fatto di balletti, risate, smalti sulle unghie, giochi e veleggiate. I giorni all’arrivo si avvicinano e noi navighiamo a un metro dal suolo. Siamo felici, siamo liberi, stiamo vivendo un’esperienza più unica che rara e stiamo bene. Non importa se abbiamo già attraversato una volta l’oceano, perché tutto è cambiato e immagino che sia ogni volta come la prima. Non abbiamo visto anima viva per 10 giorni e negli ultimi tre abbiamo avvistato un enorme capodoglio e decine di delfini. Nei 10 giorni che hanno preceduto quel momento abbiamo accumulato un desiderio talmente forte di ricevere un segnale dal mare, che quando è arrivato siamo esplosi di gioia. Come oggi. Tre branchi sono passati a salutarci e in tutte tre le volte abbiamo interrotto ogni attività per goderci il momento. Chi è uscito con lo spazzolino in bocca, chi dormiva ma non poteva perdersi l’occasione. In quei momenti torniamo ad avere 7 anni e a cercare i delfini tra le onde ❤️ Dopo pranzo il vento ha ripreso a soffiare e noi abbiamo spiegato le ali bianche e blu al vento. Di nuovo a 7 nodi verso l’orizzonte con il cuore più leggero delle vele 🌬️🤍 Camilla
