    We traveled the final 80 km exclusively using positional coordinates, without any sight of road or trail. As morning approached, we passed by the settlement of Shakhtyorsky and then across the Anadyr River estuary. By 11:00, we had arrived in the capital of the Chukotka Autonomous District, the city of Anadyr.

    The Expedition has been completed successfully! Over the course of 32 days, our Ford Expeditions traveled almost 14000 kilometers from Moscow to Anadyr, with approximately one-third of the route passing along winter roads, frozen rivers and off-road. Hurray! We’re too tired to celebrate just yet and we’re finding it hard to grasp just what we’ve accomplished. It will probably all begin to make sense in a few days time.

    On April 14, the Expedition returns to Moscow…
