Welcome to our Svalbard ski expedition blog! We will be providing daily updates on our group of 8 currently out on a 6-day dog sled supported ski expedition. Day 1 recap is just in.
Our team has just finished their first day on the trail in Bolterdalen, a valley just south of Longyearbyen. They reported rather unfavorable conditions with winds up to 30-40 mph and very low visibility. After 6 miles of progress, they set up camp and ended the day with clear skies and a warm dinner. Even after a day of adverse weather, their spirits are high and they are excited for the journey ahead of them.
Listen below for Zane's full audio update and check back tomorrow for another update!
