Ergodyne-Clad Explorers Successfully Reach North Pole

The safety equipment manufacturer sponsors American team to accomplish the crossing into the North Pole for the first time since 2010.

Posted: May 18, 2014

On Tuesday, May 6th, at approximately 9 pm MDT, Ergodyne (St. Paul, MN) -sponsored explorers Eric Larsen and Ryan Waters reached the geographic North Pole, completing their unsupported and unaided “Last North” expedition in just 53 days.

They were the only team attempting a crossing to reach the North Pole this season – and the only team since 2010 to accomplish this feat. They also are the second American team in history to complete the crossing, following John Huston and Tyler Fish’s 55-day journey in 2009.

“I’ve been using Ergodyne gear on my training trips and expeditions for the past 3 years and am always impressed with their durability and performance as well as Ergodyne’s desire to deliver truly topnotch safety gear,” said Eric Larsen. “My custom-made ProFlex® 819OD gloves were a great addition to my polar gear. If Ergodyne’s stuff can keep me warm in -34 deg C weather, they can certainly keep workers warm across the globe.”
