I'm seriously excited to announce that in a few weeks, I'll be rowing across the Bass Strait with fellow adventures Ben Turner and Margaret Bowling. We'll be launching from Wilsons Promontory in Victoria and rowing our way south across the infamous Bass Strait, down the east coast of Tasmania and into the states capital (and Margaret's home town) Hobart. We expect the voyage to take about 12 days or

What can I say.... the North Pole is CRAZY!I've just spent the last forty days skiing from the North Pole to Canada's Ward Hunt Island as part of Pat Farmers epic journey to run from the North Pole to the South Pole. My job on the arctic leg of the journey was to film and send back one minute of footage each and every day from the ice. No expedition had ever sent so much video before and we were told

I'm pleased to announce that I'll be joining ultra-marathon runner Pat Farmer and Aussie polar guide Eric Philips as we ski from the North Pole to the northern tip of Ward Hunt Island in Canada starting April this year. My job (among other things) will be to lug about 20 kilograms of satellite communications equipment in my already ridiculously heavy sled and send out one minute of video each and every

Well it's official, Chris' book is now in all good book stores and is flying off the shelves, just in time for Christmas!We're so happy to finally have a product to show people what it was like crossing Victoria Island. It's been received really well so far and we're amazed at the amount of publicity the book has had. We've been interviewed by the Sunrise morning team of Channel 7, had a feature story

Well it's been a hectic last three months working at the ABC. I've been doing six days a week which is CRAZY, but also great fun. In my spare time (i use the word loosely) I've been working on the risk management document for my solo Indian Ocean row. In my research I've found out there's another Aussie crazy enough to row solo across the Ocean - in fact he is three times as crazy because he's planning

A while ago I wrote a short piece for Australian Geographic Magazine about navigation in the age of technology. It's up on their blog now, so if you feel like a read - check it out.

This is just a quick update to alert everyone to fellow Aussie adventurer.. Ben Turner.In a nutshell, he's 25 yrs old, he lives in Melbourne, and in 2012 he's planning to row solo from Peru to Australia..... CRAZY!I like him because he's not only attempting a kick-ass adventure, but he seems to have a great attitude about it as well. The most important thing I've learnt over the last few years is that

Say hello to Sydney's newest graduate! Yep it's been five years but I've made it.... Earlier this week I attended my graduation ceremony for Uni. I now have a degree in Media and Communication, with a film major. Should come in handy for filming my various adventures anyway. So what else is new? Well, I'm happily working as a news producer for the ABC in Sydney and am working through the details

Just in case you have not been following his progress, check out Shaun Quincey's website www.TasmanTrespasser.com - he is currently rowing solo across the notorious Tasman sea from Australia to New Zealand.His Dad, Collin, did it first, in the late 70's and now Collin is following in his Dad's footsteps. He is about a third of the way across and has a remarkable attitude, GO SHAUN! Also, he is twittering

Happy New year, well happy 2 months into the year anyway. The first part of the Year started rather relaxingly for me. I took a holiday to Bali and Lombok in Indonesia which was awesome. Not because I got to climb any volcanos or go trekking through Jungle, but because I got to spend two weeks with my girlfriend, sitting by the pool with a cocktail in hand. It was my first real holiday in years.Holidays

Its been a while since my last update but i'll do my best to fill you in on the last month.Well, since finishing Uni, my life has been split between saving money, trying to find a 'real' film job and get the Victoria Island documentary up and running (amongst festive season stuff!) and out of the usual stuff I have two bits of news to report.1) I may be going into space2) Our doco is now officially

Hi all, A lot has been happening over the last month and a lot more in the next coming months. I thought I'd send a quick update to keep you posted.A couple of weeks ago I managed to somehow get through to the final round of interviews for a new TV show for Channel 7. In a nutshell it would have involved me flying all over the World filming travel stories and the possibility of winnning a large

Over the last few months there has been some good progress with the 1000 Hour Day documentary, affectionately named "The Crossing" for now. Julien Harvey and Enzo Tedeschi from Distracted Media have been fantastic in working on getting funding for the doco and sorting through the countless hours of footage I took during the 2005 and 2008 expeditions. Earlier in the week they had a screening

Last Sunday I ran in the Sydney running festival to finish my first marathon. 42 kilometres and 4 1/2 hours later I finished - not the fastest time in the world but i'm happy to finally confront my fear of running. Yes funny any adventurer not liking something simple like running. Anyway, all went well and apart from a few sore joints and muscles i'm one happy explorer. Next task is to train for the Hawkesbury

Late October this year, my mate Chris and I are both entering the 'Hawkesbury Classic' which is an annual 111 km marathon canoe race overnight down the Hawkesbury River. Apart from having a bit of 'fun', the aim is to raise money for the Arrow Bone Marrow Transplant Foundation to 'give hope to people suffering from diseases treatable by bone marrow and adult stem cell transplants'. It's open to kayaks

"What's this twist with your Antarctic expedition Clark?" I hear you say... Well we are revealing this twist soon, but not just yet.I can however, tell you that training has begun. Because Jonesy, Cass and I have not worked together as a complete team before, and seeing as we'll be working together for the next couple of years on the Antarctic Expedition, we have made it a big priority

Well its been around 10 months since returning from the depths of Victoria Island and expedition life in general so I thought i'd give a brief rundown with what i've been up to and what my plans are for the future. As soon as Chris and I stepped back on Aussie soil, i pretty much went straight back into training and fundraising because I had only 7 months before I was due to row across the Indian

So who's been following the Indian Ocean Rowing Race this year? Well I know I have, since I can't be in it, I may as well watch obsessively as those little dots make their way across my computer screen. If your like me, you'll start out going "OK cool look at them out there in the Indian Ocean", then the next day you'll check again to see whats happened since you last looked, then a

Well as of yesterday I realised that my contact page was sending to a 'nothing' email address ie. domain@user.comAs soon as I resolved this problem I received an email from someone through the website. This lead me to think - oh oh, how many people tried to contact me and never got a reply.This blog entry is to say that "No, i was not ignoring you. I just didnt get your message because I'm a goose".

Well i may not have been able to enter in this years rowing race, but the least I could do was be in Geraldton for the start (after all I did already have a plane ticket there).I had mixed feelings arriving in Geraldton, split between sadness and regret that I was not a part of the race, and joy in seeing the other competitors in all their glory after so much banter and emails sent over the last two
