LIFE ON ICE The only way to access the Continent at the start of season is by ski-equipped plane. The journey begins in Canada (where the planes are based in our off-season), with a 3-man crew making the 5-day – sometimes turbulent – journey down south to Punta Arenas. Luke Brauteseth, our Antarctic Operations Manager, has joined this cross-continental crossing many times. Here, at the tip of the South American continent, the crew are met by 3 additional technical staff critical to the re-opening of Wolf’s Fang Runway (WFR).
