Ice Challenger

The Ice Challenger was the vehicle of the Ice Challenger Expedition of 2002, in which British explorer Steve Brooks and his team set out to drive across the Bering Sea from Alaska to Siberia, over the shifting mosaic of ice floes and open water between them, aiming to be the first people ever to do so.

The archive's photographs come from the portfolio of the British photographer Joanna Vestey, who documented the expedition. No technical description of the vehicle is included.
