"Transantarctic" 30 years ago, six people from different countries, including the Soviet traveler Viktor Boyarsky, teamed up to cross the Antarctic continent along the longest route. The expedition called "Transantarctic" began in July 1989 and arrived at the end point on March 3, 1990. The team covered a distance of 6,000 kilometers in 220 days. The purpose of the expedition was to draw international attention to the continent and the early signs of climate change, and the group's only means of transportation was three teams of 36 sled dogs. The Transantarctic was the first non-mechanical crossing of a continent in history. During the journey, the scientists navigated with the help of a sextant instrument, and also used a prototype of the current GPS. Also, as part of the Transantarctic, snow and blood samples were collected. Soviet scientist Viktor Boyarsky measured the level of ozone in the earth. The expedition members were equipped with The North Face brand products, made using an advanced Gore-Tex
membrane. Thanks to the first-class quality of equipment, well-coordinated work of the team and timely support of the escorts, Transantarctic was completed on time and all six of its participants visited the leaders of their countries to lobby for an environmental protocol and a ban on mining on the continent. Tribute to outstanding travelers Based on archival samples of the equipment of the participants of the "Transantarctic", The North Face presented a capsule release, which included two models of jackets, as well as sweatshirts and sweatpants.
