Ice Camp Barneo History Due to the shifting arctic ice, the private Russian camp must be rebuilt, from the ice up, every year. Constructing the camp is a logistical feat involving the use of IL-76, AN-74 and Mil-8 aircraft. The first luxury ice camp near the North Pole was created in 2002, by aviation economist Irina Orlova and her late husband Alexander Orlov, a polar pilot. Orlova continues to oversee the camp today. The camp s name is a play on Borneo, a lush tropical island in the Pacific. Changes to the polar ice caps make the future of Barneo Ice camp uncertain. Don t miss this rare opportunity to Skydive the North Pole and visit Ice Camp Barneo. 2018 North Pole Skydive www.skydivehigh.com 800-644-7382 941-346-2603
