Children of Winter... never grow old.

Ski Season is not far away , the new Warren Miller movie is coming...  and we're in it...!!!

"Skiing and sailing don’t really go together. But if you’re in Iceland, it makes perfect sense. Jeff Annetts, Drew Stoecklein, and Derek Foose explore Iceland’s humbling wilderness on board the 60-foot Aurora. This sailboat effectively works as “a mobile backcountry hut,” granting them access to otherwise unreachable mountains, spines, and chutes, that all end at the ocean. A land that is called “a photographer’s dream” acts as a gateway to the unimaginable and offers these newly bonded athletes the adventure of a lifetime."


In 2008 we had a team from Warren Miller Entertainment  on a trip with us. Deep powder.  Huge airs.  World-class cinematography. It's all part of Warren Miller's Children of Winter, the world's largest action sports film, which is set to music by Radiohead, Michael Franti and Spearhead, Beck, and others.  Shown in crystal-clear high definition, the film tour crisscrosses the US and nine countries worldwide.

Check out the 2 minute teaser below:

 

"When it's cold and snowing, others run inside. But skiers and snowboarders do the opposite, no matter how old we are," said Max Bervy, director and producer. "We are all the Children of Winter, and if you ski or ride, this movie reaffirms what we all know, that we're lucky to know the shortest, coldest days of the year."

Make sure you book early for a Borea ski trip in the spring of 2011...  check out the schedule here and photos here.

Welcome to the website for Borea Adventures, Iceland, your number one stop for Arctic adventures in high latitudes. We provide great adventures and expeditions in Iceland, Greenland, East Greenland, Jan Mayen and Svalbard (Spitzbergen), mainly using our spacious yacht, the Aurora. Our philosophy is to make our trips as silent as possible where we minimize the use of motorized power and encourage physical activities, whether sea kayaking, climbing, sailing, walking and hiking, wildlife, ski touring and backcountry skiing for beginners, experts and people of all ages. The North Atlantic is our playground and we offer scheduled trips for individuals and groups as well as customized itineraries and charter for groups. We travel in harmony with the wildlife of the area: Arctic Foxes, Birds, Seals, Whales and Polar Bears. Aurora is a sturdy expedition yacht and was raced four times around the globe as part of the Clipper Round the World yacht race under the ownership of Sir Robin Knox-Johnston. She gives us a great opportunity to provide Arctic adventures in areas that are hard to reach otherwise. We call her our floating basecamp. Our name is derived from Greek mythology where Boreas was the god of the north wind. Aurora on the other hand was the Roman rosy-fingered goddess of dawn. Aurora Borealis is a name for the Northern lights which are common in our area. As we humans have proven through the decades, names can be hard to remember. Especially if a bit of alcohol gets passed around the galley too many times! You might spell our name Boreal Adventures, Borial Adventures, Borea Adventrues and Borealis Adventures. Thank you for visiting Borea Adventures.
