Polar Explorer Comes to Wisconsin

Renowned polar explorer, and Wisconsin native, Eric Larsen is embarking on an unprecedented journey to the North Pole, South Pole and summit of Mt. Everest all in one year. The goal of his expedition is to document the last great frozen places on the planet while promoting ways to reduce carbon emissions and global warming.
