military service
in the Norwegian
Special Naval
Forces. In 1986
Børge and two of
his diving
colleagues,
Agnar Berg and
Jan Morten
Ertsaas, skied
across
Greenland. In 37
days they
traveled from
Angmassalik on
the east coast
to Umanak on the
west coast, a
distance of 800
km in direct
line. At that
time only a few
had traveled
across the
inland ice since
Fritjof Nansen
and five
companions first
made the
crossing in
1888. The next
expedition was
in 1990 when
Børge, Geir
Randby and
Erling Kagge set
out from
Ellesmere Island
in Canada for
the North Pole
without
receiving any
supplies
underway. Randby
had to be picked
up due to an
injury, but
Ousland and
Kagge completed
the trip in 58
days (March 8 to
May 4, 1990).
This was the
first
unsupported ski
trek to the
North Pole; a
distance of 800
km. Børge
Ousland and
Agnar Berg
attempted in
1993 to ski
across the drift
ice from Frans
Josef Land to
Svalbard, but
the expedition
had to be
aborted when
they encountered
large areas of
open water.
Although the
North Pole trip
in 1990 had
created a lot of
interest in
Norway and
abroad, it was
nothing compared
to the attention
created
following his
solo trek to the
North Pole in
1994, also
completed
without any
outside support.
He started from
Cape Arktichesky
in Northern
Siberia on March
2, 1994 and
arrived at the
North Pole 52
days later on
April 22. After
successfully
completing this
expedition Børge
Ousland has
worked full time
on expeditions
and the tasks
associated with
these.
The next
challenge was to
be the first to
cross Antarctica
alone without
support from
coast to coast
via the South
Pole. In 1995
Ousland had to
abandon this
trip due to
frost injuries
after having
passed the South
Pole itself.
Although he did
not complete the
crossing, he
then became the
first person to
have skied alone
without support
to both poles.
The very next
year, 1996-97,
he successfully
completed the
crossing of
Antarctica alone
and without
receiving any
supplies
underway. He
started November
15 from Berkner
Island in the
Weddell Sea and
he reached the
McMurdo base by
the Ross Sea on
January 17. He
had then been
underway 64 days
and covered a
distance of 2845
km. The lowest
temperature
experienced was
minus 56 degrees
Celsius. At
start the sledge
weighed 178
kilos. The
maximum altitude
reached was
about 3400 meter
above sea level.
In 2001 Børge
reached another
milestone by
being the first
to cross the
Arctic alone
from Siberia to
Canada via the
North Pole in 82
days.
Ousland has
twice climbed
mountains higher
than 8000 meters
in the Himalayas
(Cho Oyo in
1999; in 2003 he
had to turn back
just below the
peak of Mount
Everest).
In 2002 Børge
Ousland and
Thomas Ulrich
made a
reconnaissance
trip to
Patagonia in
Chile to study
the area for a
new expedition.
They wanted to
explore if it
was possible to
cross the
southern
Patagonian Ice
Field
unsupported.
This is the
third largest
glacier in the
world after
Antarctica and
Greenland.
The following
year the couple
succeeded in
crossing the
Patagonian Ice
Fields as the
first to do so
without outside
support. The two
explorers
started with
kayak from
Tortel, skied
over the inland
ice fields and
54 days later
they finally
paddled into
Puerto Natales
in their kayaks.
The combination
of Thomas as a
mountain climber
and Børge as a
polar veteran
was very
successful on
this very
difficult
expedition that,
for example,
included a
600-meter
rappel. The
expedition was
described in in
National
Geographic
Magazine in
August 2004.
In 2006, Borge
set out on one
of his hardest
expeditions,
North Pole
during winter
time. 22nd of
January Borge
and expedition
partner Mike
Horn left Cape
Arktichesky and
started the
battle against
the cold and
darkness on the
dangerous
drifting ice.
After more than
two months,
fighting open
water, polar
bears, minus 40
conditions and
an infection
that nearly
killed Mike,
they reached the
Geographical
North Pole 23rd
of March. This
expedition had
long been
regarded as
impossible due
to the constant
darkness and the
extreme cold of
the winter
months. Beeing
the first to do
this during the
months of
winter, they
have added a new
chapter to the
history of Polar
exploration.
In 2007, Borge
and Thomas
Ulrich started
on an old dream;
to follow in
Fridtjof nansen
and Hjalmar
Johansens
footsteps
through Frans
Josef land. They
started at the
North Pole 1st
of may, it took
the them one and
a half months
across
threashrous
summer drift ice
to reach Eva
Live Island in
the north east
of the
arcipelago. From
here they
continued,
following
Nansens route
from one island
to the other
until they
finally reached
cape Flora in
the south parts
24th of July.
Here they had to
wait almost
three weeks, and
were forced to
live of the
land, before the
44 feet long
sailboat Athene
managed to rech
them and picked
up the two
explorers 13th
of August.
Sailing across
the Barents sea,
first to
Murmansk to
stamp passpoert
(frans Josef
Land is russian
territory), and
then to North
Cape, the
northern most
point in Norway.
Here Thomas left
for sweet home
in switzerland,
while Borge
sailed south to
Bodø, where he
got on his
bycycle and
cycled through
Norway to his
home in Oslo.
Borge reached
Oslo 18th of
September.
Børge Ousland
makes his living
giving lectures.
He is one of the
few speakers
represented by
National
Geographic
Speakers Bureau;
a part of the
National
Geographic
Society,
Washington, D.C.
He has also held
several lectures
for the Royal
Geographic
Society in
London.
Børge has
managed to
successfully
complete his
expeditions as a
result of
thorough
preparation with
emphasis on
training,
coordination and
development of
equipment and
properly
balanced
nutrition.

 Rick Sweitzer
Rick Sweitzer has organized and guided countless
expeditions and adventures around the world. In
1984, after returning from Ghana as a Peace
Corps volunteer, Rick founded The Northwest
Passage on a shoestring budget and his deep
passion for the active outdoor
experience. A person of diverse talents and
interests, he envisioned a
company based on his life philosophy, "To live
fully and completely,
recognizing that it is from the wilderness we
come and that only in the
wilderness may we return to discover who we
fully are." Since that time,
the company has expanded into a premier
adventure travel outfitter
specializing in extraordinary get-a-ways,
holidays and expeditions
around the globe. In 1993 Rick created and
co-guided the first-ever
dogsled and ski expedition to the North Pole for
amateur adventurers.
His successes in the polar regions led to the
creation of
PolarExplorers, a division of The Northwest
Passage that caters to the
high-end market of polar tourism and
expeditionary travel. His constant
search for the next "best itinerary" has led him
to create a series of
polar expeditions for fathers/sons &
mothers/daughters, as well as the
"Seven plus Three" series that combines the
seven summits with
expeditions to the North Pole, South Pole and
crossing of the Greenland
icecap. Rick remains active as a guide and scout
for Northwest Passage
adventures. It was while guiding a recent family
expedition to Tanzania
that Rick was inspired to create the Kili Fund;
an environmental and
humanitarian initiative that provides vital work
and education to the
people of Tanzania while helping to clean Mount
Kilimanjaro of its
accumulating rubbish. His dedication to quality
and service is matched
only by his ability to spin the "fun meter" on a
daily basis - both in
the office and while guiding adventures.
 Ivan
Vallejo
Fascinated by the beauty and the powerful appeal
of mountains, Ivan Vallejo was convinced at the
age of 7 that he wanted to pursue mountain
climbing as his lifelong career.
Born in Ambato, Ecuador, Ivan grew up admiring
the majestic, perfectly shaped peak of the
Tungurahua volcano, just one of the numerous
volcanic peaks of the Andean range that dot the
Ecuadorian landscape.
After obtaining a Chemical Engineering Degree
from Ecuador’s National Polytechnic Institute,
Ivan remained at Ecuador’s National Polytechnic
Institute as a Professor of Mathematics but was
determined to pursue a career as a mountain
climber.
His first great achievement came in October 1978
when he climbed the Chimborazo, Ecuador’s
highest peak at 20,700 feet. Ten years later,
Ivan left on his first international expedition
to neighboring Peru climbing the Artesonraju and
Alpamayo peaks in the White Mountain Range. In
1989, he returned to Peru to climb the Huascarán
at 22,200 feet and shortly thereafter climbed
the Illampu, one of Bolivia’s steeper peaks at
20,000 feet.
In 1995, Ivan went to conquer Europe’s and
Asia’s peaks, climbing the Mont Blanc before
heading out to Everest National Park and the
Himalayas. Ivan’s goal was to one day reach the
summit of Mount Everest, a longer term project
he named “Ecuador on the Rooftop of the World.”
After training for several years climbing
different peaks of the Himalayas, Ivan attained
his objective in 1999 and reached the summit of
Mount Everest and without the help of oxygen.
Building on this first great achievement, Ivan
decided to try again for the peak of Mount
Everest in 2001, but this time climbing from the
Nepalese side (he had climbed from the Tibetan
side in 1999) following the original path that
the first conquerors of Mount Everest, Edmund
Hillary and Tenzing Norgay had taken in 1953.
Once again, he reached the summit without the
help of oxygen.
Ivan chronicled his expeditions to Mount Everest
in a book titled “Mi Propio Everest” (“My Own
Everest”) published in October 2005.
His great life experience based on the deep
sensations and emotions that one feels in the
mountains including solitude, happiness,
strength and abandonment have led Ivan to offer
motivational workshops and presentations at
various conferences where he shares his personal
experience and the challenges he had to overcome
to reach his dream. Some of the companies and
institutions where Ivan has spoken include: Coca
Cola Ecuador, Kraft Foods Ecuador, Metropolitan
Touring, Schering Plough Ecuador, Ericsson, and
Andina Breweries.
