Skiing Greenland's Mountains... For Science - Nat Segal & Kt Miller

Professional skiers venture far and wide around the world to get the most beautiful lines and the rarest turns. National Geographic teamed up with big mountain skier Natalie Segal and adventurer, photographer and occasional climate scientist Kt Miller to venture to Greenland with an all-woman team. The objective of the adventure was to climb up and ski down mountains, in the hope of skiing peaks that have never been skied before, as well as gathering data about the water and sea ice surrounding the world's largest island. They explained that they had more encounters with humans than polar bears, and while the bears are having a harder time surviving with reduced sea ice, the humans find that their crops have a slightly longer growing season.
