Also, they're really cute.
Arctic poppies are these cute little electric yellow flowers.
They're just a few inches tall and they can be so pretty.
So was that it?
That was the northernmost plant?
Not quite.
We kept walking north on the island and we were doing these longitudinal sweeps along the way to make sure we were capturing everything.
You know, we were actually doing geometry in Brian's notebook for a while.
You scientists.
It was just like popping out of the gravel and it looked like it was going to be our winner.
What can you say?
It's not as epic, but it's the facts.
So Brian pulls out the GPS to double check where we are.
To celebrate, we were like, obviously we have to jump in the water that's right next to us at this northernmost piece of land on Earth.
So we take off our clothes and run screaming into the Arctic Ocean.
We called it the Capucluban Swim Club.
And then when I stepped out, I actually uncovered with my bare feet another tiny patch of moss.
And so that actually ended up being the winner, the northernmost plant on earth.
Oh, that's funny.
