While we're not really sure if these guys should be here, or in the Boating section, we can't miss an opportunity to call some attention to the Floating Neutrinos.  This band of adventurers represent the exact opposite end of the spectrum from most world traveling adventurers.  The Neutrinos are a small group of homeless folk, who've crossed the North Atlantic in a homemade raft made out of scraps and junk.  Their latest adventure after that was a float all the way down the Mississippi River in another scrap raft.  

     Well, this year the Eco-Challenge television coverage moved from the Discovery Channel to the USA Networks.  We're not too thrilled with the change.  Be sure to check out our Eco-Challenge section to find out why and to read more about this awesome adventure race.

     Our Global Crossings section is setup to chronicle all the different types of adventurers that set out to circumnavigate the globe in one form or another.

     Many refer to Antarctica as the last true wilderness on Earth.  We agree with that assessment, and love to follow the exploits of those who travel there for scientific study and personal challenge.  The North Pole is also an area we're extremely interested in, and we've found many who've made unique expeditions to this most inhospitable of all places.  Be sure to check out our North and South Poles section to see what's new on the ends of the Earth.

     As a contrast to the well-organized large scale races and expeditions that take place around the world, there are the Solo Adventurers who take on colossal adventures alone and often unaided but any but the most rudimentary support facilities.  Some accomplish what they set out to do, others don't but in our opinion none of them are failures.  These folks represent the most amazing human spirits we've seen, and we've dedicated a section of this site following those who set out on their own solo adventure.
