Qué cubre este vídeo

Steve and Carter ski 8.5 kilometers into Baker's Brook Pond inside Gros Morne National Park to scout ice climbing routes on 1,700-foot fjord walls.13:10 The approach follows a packed skidoo trail with almost no elevation gain, pulling a single heavy pulk to a Parks Canada rental hut equipped with a wood stove, propane, and indoor plumbing.13:20 Before heading out on the ice, they drill a test hole with an auger at the hut and find more than six inches of hard ice, though they flag open water near brook inflows as hazard zones.20:12 Several miles down the frozen pond, ice formations tower roughly 600 meters above them — more routes, and bigger, than either expected.22:22 Earlier in the trip, local Rod takes them out by snowmobile to check snowshoe hare snares and ice fish a deep pond, pulling brook trout through a foot-thick ice sheet.10:04 Rod also demonstrates off-grid cabin power challenges in sub-zero temperatures, which frames a sponsored segment on the Blue Eddy Pioneer NA lithium battery, rated to charge and discharge at negative 40 degrees.6:11 Steve and Carter plan to return with a larger group, making this outing explicit recon for a four-day hut trip.12:52
