Salvage containers left by government project Alaska, on an island in a middle of a vast lake. The player whose salvage Company returns the most containers to camp, wins.

During winter, use caterpillar tractors to cross the ice. When spring arrives, the ice begins to melt and journeys become dangerous. Finally, it becomes impossible to reach the island.
Compete with your unscrupulous opponents who may steal your containers. Watch out for the local polar bears. If you’re lucky a helicopter can help you. A very interesting and absorbing strategy game.
