Meet Chris and Marty-a married couple working on their careers,
raising their only child, and chasing big adventures. At midlife,
they suddenly find themselves weighing the responsibility of
parenthood against the possibility of one more grand adventure,
before their aging bodies and the warming continent of Antarctica
further degrade. They ultimately decide it's time to pursue their
biggest dream: Ski 570 miles from the edge of Antarctica to the
South Pole. With no guide or resupply. From the lush Pacific
Northwest to the barren landscape of Antarctica, Chris and Marty
embark on one of the hardest challenges on the planet. After three
years of intense planning and training, including meticulous
preparations for the care of their twelve-year-old son, they are
ready. Experience a boundless white wonderland like no other on
earth. Encounter life-threatening dangers lurking in the bitter
cold. Feel the intensity of 220-pound sleds, relentless wind,
40-below temperatures, and mind-numbing isolation. This is not an
average couples getaway. Chris and Marty go where few others have
dared on the way to making history-stretching their bodies, minds,
and marriage to the limit in the process. Riveting and inspiring,
The Expedition is about the power of family and community, the
adventurous spirit that dwells within us all, and breaking through
to feel fully alive.
