A woman has completed her attempt to traverse solo across Canada's largest island. Covering 150 miles (241km) on foot and by ski while pulling a sledge across Baffin Island, Camilla Hempleman-Adams battled temperatures as low as minus 40C and winds of 75kmph. The 32-year-old from Wiltshire had hoped to complete the challenge in 14 days, but finished a day faster than anticipated. She said: "It's been a really tough two weeks, but an incredible two weeks." "I'm feeling pretty exhausted, I have very sore feet, but it's nice to be back in civilisation," she added. The solo trek across Baffin Island - Canada's largest island - took Ms Hempleman-Adams from Qikiqtarjuaq to Pangnirtung, through Auyuittuq National Park.
