Finishing Up


Isbjørn finish mapping and snow pit digging on the Foxbreen, whilst Polarrev begin pulking back to Base Camp 1 stopping below the Tellbreen. Rype continue with the reindeer feeding pit survey and reindeer survey, this time at the mouth of Foxdalen - another day that felt really cold!

A strange sight, in the low evening light 2030hrs - 2 hot air balloons and a parapente coming up Adventadalen from Longyearbyen. They seemed to be struggling to gain altitude! Clear, still, -20ºc.
