Men like to conquer, fight or subdue the Arctic, while we had a different attitude. We felt that we had to go along with what we were faced with….

Sue & Victoria Riches, mother and daughter, never imagined how much one small article in a newspaper would change their lives… Within two years, they were trekking across the frozen wilderness that is the Arctic Ocean, as part of the first all women`s expedition to the North Pole.

Having survived cancer treatment and a mastectomy it was an opportunity to discover that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.
