Leo Holding and other 3 great big wall climbers get together to challenge Ulvetanna summit (2,931m) at the Antarctic area. In this area looking like a lump or rock protruding above ice surface, the biggest variables are cold, isolation, food supply and equipment transportation. The team loads 1,600kg of luggage on a light aircraft and takes off. There is an untouched route consisting of 35 pitches, whose headwall can be topped only by climbing the Northeast ridge as long as 1,750m. A Norwegian climber group climbed the west face in 1774 and Huber brothers reached the top through the southwest ridge in 2008. The team struggled for over 30 days to climb the North ridge, which is the hardest and longest route because it has a vertical cliff from the beginning and there are dangerous and long ridges as well as a vertical headwall just below the top. Climbers on the granite wall above breathtakingly beautiful icebergs of the Arctic area look impressive.
