Arctic Wolf Viewing and Photography Expedition (Eureka)

Searching for the Arctic Wolf tour Ellesmere Island. While searching for the Arctic wolf we come across Herds of Musk-ox, some with calf’s, some big herds and small herds. Also, Polar Bears, Arctic Foxes, Arctic Hares, Snowy owls and Ringed Seals on the sea ice and beautiful landscape. We offer 3 types of packages. The first option, A 16 day tour, catch a scheduled flight from Resolute Bay to Grise fiord (non-charter). We drive by snowmobile and sleigh from Grise Fiord to Eureka Base Camp (3 days). Day trips out of Eureka Basecamp area (10 days). Then drive by snowmobile and sleigh back to Grise fiord (3 days) to catch your scheduled flight back south. The benefit of this option is that you get to see a lot more of Ellesmere Island, the wildlife along the way and the possibility of finding the Wolf closer to Grise Fiord and not having to go so far North. Be advised, This option is very tough due to the long travel over rough terrain such as valleys, glaciers, sea ice with snow drifts and rough ice while dealing with long hours in the cold with not much cover from the wind. As long as you have the right gear, preparation and clothing it’s a great option to get the full experience of the high Arctic like no other. Shelter, Bedding, Sleeping Bag, Food and Generator included. Hand sewn Local Winter Outerwear available upon request such as Pants, Parka, Boots, Mitts and Hats. The expenses for this special type of tour is very high due to the remote location. 2nd Option, 16 day Tour, 50/50 Snowmobile + Charter, We travel about 3 - 4 days by Snowmobile and Sleigh from Grise Fiord to Eureka Basecamp.
