PAPUA NEW GUINEA
EXPEDITION
AN UNMOTORISED CROSSING
The team carried everything required for their multi-terrain journey, restocking with food and fuel wherever possible. Supplies, medical equipment, water treatment, solar panels, hammocks, jungle clothing and stoves quickly added up to a small avalanche of kit, and saving lbs becomes an obsession.
A key objective of the expedition was to document, via film and photography, the areas through which the team travel. Unfortunately film and photos require regular back-up, traditionally using a hefty laptop and multiple hard drives.
Nexto Di UK provided the team with a much welcomed lightweight and efficient alternative to the cumbersome laptop and drive. Their simple product backs up memory cards, simply by plugging in the card and hitting a 'Backup' button. As well as saving kilos, the product was also a much more efficient use of the limited solar power supply, and a rugged reliable backup of data.
