Kamchatka

A journey from the Arctic Circle in Chuchotka, Far Eastern Russia, along the coast of the Kamchatka Peninsula via the Commander Islands. This vast Siberian wilderness is very sparsely populated and has a harsh climate, with an 8-9 month winter. The North is tundra, gradually giving way to light forest in the South. This is the land of salmon, of big fat brown bears, volcanoes, wild rivers and wonderfully pristine landscapes, rarely seen by humans. All landings were done in expedition style, into water in Wellington boots and waterproof clothing, with long hikes in Wellington boots to see the seals, puffins, bears, foxes and other wildlife..
An unforgettable journey in this land once used for the gulags where prisoners worked remote mines in appalling conditions.
