    Basics? Food and Water?

    I applaud this person for documenting the journey, but without a brief and early explanation of how he ate, drank or covered himself - for the first couple days. It lost me. I'm sure the journey was awesome but I mostly wanted to know the answers to the first few basic questions, earlier. Thank you!

    Great Solo Adventure

    This documentary on a solo adventure across the Canadian arctic was amazing. From the scenery, to the commentary, to the adversity, to the perseverance, it was great from start to finish.

    Should have been a YouTube vlog

    Somehow this just came across and very uninteresting.

    There isn't much to get the viewer invested.

    Should have been a YouTube series.

    Terrible - amateur filmmaking

    What a waste of a good subject. This is what happens when amateur filmmakers grab cameras and just shoot whatever they see. Just terrible quality - looks like a youtube video from 2003 - if that!

    Amazing Scenery

    The scenery is breath taking! The book is a must read. Adam elaborates on his stories more in depth. But I did not grasp just how harrowing a journey this was until I watched the movie. Adam is one crazy guy to do this alone
