To get a view of the fjord from above the team relies on a very special mode of transport.

Steve and the team are in Greenland to kayak an Arctic fjord earlier in the year than has ever been possible, due to warming seas and shorter winters. To get a view of the fjord from above they’re relying on a very special mode of transport. For thousands of years, the people of Greenland have lived side by side with dogs, and they make the perfect sled pullers.
