Skiing hike through the national park of Pallas-Yllästunturi - VIDEO

Here’s a glimpse into the atmosphere of our winter trek, now in video form. This might capture even more clearly what it was like to befriend—or at least travel with—the wind. It was with us throughout the journey, whether we wanted it or not.

It’s funny to watch your own videos during editing. It almost feels like I wasn’t on the trip myself, but rather watching footage someone else filmed. You see everything differently with your own eyes than through the camera lens.

What felt and looked normal to the eye during the trek now appears much more arctic and cold—maybe even a bit wild on video. I guess when you're out there, you focus on your own feelings, which were mostly warm and comfortable, rather than thinking about how it looks from an outside perspective. It’s nice, though, to revisit these moments through live footage and think, “Yes, we were just there.” It’s a strange feeling.

Enjoy the video! Bundle up and dive into the arctic atmosphere.
