This was the highlight of all my trips for me—going where no human had ever been before and truly exploring our planet.
My 1,300 kilometer journey on skis, dragging a heavy sled to the frozen ends of the Earth to chase my Polar Hat Trick dream, is finally complete!
In several sports, a “hat trick” refers to three individual achievements in a single game. For example, a player might score three goals in one soccer game. Jade’s Polar Hat Trick called for three challenging expeditions. Together, they covered about 1,300 kilometers.
