July 1 in Yakutsk started expedition "Shintop Trophy 2010: From the Pacific to the Arctic" - adventure adventurous off-road amphibious route "Yakutsk- Seymchan- Ambarchik».
Say, what's so surprising? Land Rovers "Neyshnl Geographic" and not in such a jungle traveled !!!
We dare to assure skeptics that, in this case: - You are wrong !!!
The thing is that, for the first time in the world, 1,500 kilometers off-road amphibious will "swim" in the great Russian river Kolyma !!!
... A bit of history. In 2008, the eyes of members of the Far East club "Shintop Trophy" has got a message about the British crew, successfully overcame the Bering Strait to the amphibious vehicle. This fact was a powerful stimulus for club members - What we are worse than the Britons? And what Russian does not like fast swimming in the SUV?
Virus creation was successfully planted, ideological ferment began in 2009 under the leadership known for his creativity and enthusiasm, the head of the club "Shintop Trophy" - Alexander Holyanovym, established the first amphibious off-road vehicle on the basis of «Toyota Hilux».
Firstborn bore a truly Russian Far East features - had considerable buoyancy and assembled from readily available materials, was quite simple - comfort and "Western" features - detrimental to the Russian human
After the successful test of water in the Sea of Japan in the summer of 2009: the idea was born to an unprecedented alloy cold and choppy waters of the Kolyma River.
In this case, the choice of the Kolyma was not accidental - except sports complexity of the route, include cognitive interest: where else can you see such beauty northern and get acquainted with the manners and way of life of northern peoples. His hands touched the stones of abandoned villages and will touch to the eternal memory of the prisoners of the Kolyma camps of the Gulag.
