Svalbard Expedition Day 5

Updated: Aug 14, 2023


The team woke up to whiteout conditions after a full day of sunshine yesterday. Despite the poor visibility, it was pretty calm and warm throughout the day. They were able to have a great day of skiing, covering close to 14 miles and they even had some fun skijoring behind the dog sleds!


Camp was set up just over the hill from Longyearbyen, conditions remaining warm with low visibility through the evening. The team had a nice dinner and they are getting some rest before they head up the hill for their final push tomorrow morning. Check out Taylor's audio update below!
