One way ticket to Qaanaaq, Greenland via Copenhagen (bought already - December 7th, here we come); once there walk from Kap Alexandr to Craig Harbour, across Smith Sound initially and then south through Ellesmere Island. Once at Craig Harbour, walk ~122km to Grise Fiord for flight on Kenn Borek Air to Resolute, Resolute to Iqaluit, Iqaluit to Ottawa, Ottawa to UK (late January 2010).

Hard, but looks like you'll have a fun (not really the right word though!) time.

It should be cool. I've done a few trips before but in the interests of not raising my head above the parapet I'm not doing the trip for charity I'm just selling the gear afterwards and the sums raised will go to the charitable concern.
If you have a look at my blog (mentalhealthisoverrated.blogspot.com) you'll see some of the prep I've been doing to date :)

If ever I have the time and money to cross the Atlantic without flying, Greenland is definitely going to be one of my stops.
