Hell, my friend told me about her friend who managed to hitch a ride on a commercial flight London - China for her university hitchhiking contest (get as far as possible in 48hrs).

Needless to say she won xD

Well I only know what she told me about, but every year, they would have this contest, starting at the same place (probably the uni), they had 48hrs to get as far as possible without any money

Ive been picked up and allowed to fly a rides plain. There are people who hang out at small airports looking for that opportunity. Alternatively there are ice road truckers that go to nunavut

There are seasonal roads (oct-mar?) requiring thick ice. The truckers whove done it say they go in convoys and theres absolutely no way any of them would drag you along---unless you were to strand yourself hundreds of miles from civilization and intercept their convoy in a life/death situation. Hell ive been stranded hundreds of miles from civilization on gravel roads in that region where some motherfuckers still didnt stop. Totally inadvisable, but there are ways.

Im obsessed with maps so I probably came across it cruising a map one day. As your link says there used to be an ice road there. Dig a lil deeper there are/were seasonal ice roads to nunavut.

the link says there was ice road to a mine that was at the border of nunavut, which they stopped operations now, no civilization there
