A Line in the Snow

Veteran polar explorer Annie Aggens leads her two daughters on a rugged dogsled journey through the Boundary Waters, where surviving winter wilderness together becomes her most meaningful expedition yet: learning how to be a mother.

A Line in the Snow follows professional arctic explorer Annie Aggens and her two daughters on a dog sledding winter camping trip in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. The group learns valuable life and wilderness skills in one of the most pristine wilderness areas in the world, powered only by their own two feet and a team of four-legged friends. With multiple trips to the North Pole, South Pole, Greenland, and Svalbard on her resume, Annie is embarking on one of her greatest adventures yet: motherhood.
