British adventurer Karl Bushby looks on during his crossing of Alaska in this
handout picture taken some time in the winter 2004/5. Bushby is to appeal
against a court order deporting him from Russia and wrecking his plan to walk
from South America to Britain, the Interfax news agency reported April 17, 2006.
The court in the remote eastern Chukotka region ruled last week that Bushby had
broken the law by failing to get a stamp in his passport when he stumbled onto
Russian soil after walking from Alaska across the treacherous ice of the Bering
Strait. (Reuters)
