While the project was successful, especially in rallying a community to participate, it wasn't without its challenges.

we're talking about very remote areas in the arctic so the biggest challenges with it were about logistics and accessibility so many dump sites could only be reached with very specialized vehicles and often using multiple vehicles you would drive somewhere with a dump truck and then go further to the spot where and identify the unauthorized waste dumping site with a boat.

But you could also be clever and make use of the seasons.

When rivers and lakes froze over in the winter, you could use that to more easily access the more remote areas.

So that's what the volunteers often did.

So examples, for instance, is the lusterings.
