Crossing Greenland
PricewaterhouseCoopers and the Climate
Change Services team is proud to announce the sponsorship of Flip
Byrnes in her pursuit to Cross Greenland. Flip will trek 650km
unsupported from Kulusuk to Ilulissat (east to west) across the
Greenland icecap raising awareness of climate change issues.
Undertaking this route will be an Australian first, and Flip will be only the second Australian woman to have crossed Greenland.
On the 650km journey Flip will ski the
first 250km reaching the peak of Greenland. She will then use the
prevailing winds to kite ski the remaining 400km to reach her
destination of Ilulissat. The trip will commence in late April and will
take approximately 18 days. If there is no wind then the trip will take
up to 32 days.
We wish Flip a safe and successful journey as she crosses Greenland.
