Join renowned adventurer Frank Wolf on a gripping and epic journey through Canada's unforgiving northern wilderness.

Renowned adventurer Frank Wolf annually embarks on a series of long-distance wilderness journeys. A little while back, he attempted a 280 km ski journey across Baffin Island, a 1750 km canoe trip through the Northwest Territories and Nunavut, and a 550 km ski retracing of the 1854 expedition of legendary explorer John Rae, all in less than a year.

Moving through rugged landscapes, across 6000-foot-high glaciers, and down wild tundra rivers, each of these epic excursions took place with different teams of people brought together to complete challenging missions in some of the most unforgiving environments on the planet.

Beyond the sordid tales of adventure, we're also given a window into the displaced time between Wolf's primordial wanderings, revealing that his remote explorations, though arduous and uncomfortable, are easier for the wanderer than the fallow times. The inner adventure bouncing around in Wolf's head during these periods is often wilder than the obstacles he faces in the hinterlands of Canada as he copes with being a misfit in the modern world.
