Project Description & Objectives
The North Greenland Windsled Expedition 2026 has taken place on the Greenland Ice Cap. Led by polar explorer Ramón Larramendi, the international team included Antonio Mangia, Jens Jacob “JJ” Simonsen, Bendt-Poul Jensen, Clotaire Berthelot, and Patrick Peters.
The expedition combined exploration, logistics, technological testing, and scientific research. While challenging weather, deep snow conditions, and administrative delays forced the team to adapt its original plans, the expedition successfully achieved several major objectives and delivered valuable lessons for the future development of the Windsled project.
Unlike previous expeditions, one of the snowmobiles would accompany the team throughout the journey as part of the payload, providing a potential self-rescue capability if required.
