Last night was cold and wet inside the tent. Minus 15 to be more specific and of course it took us nearly 2 hours to get moving this morning. Everything it wasn’t inside the sleeping bag was frozen, so the first thing we did was to sort out the MSR petrol stove and melt some water to drink something hot.

At around 10:30 or 11 we left the site heading north towards the next waypoint.

Today was a bit cold today but snow conditions were ok to progress. We managed around 16 km in the day and we decided to stop and recover, dry the stuff properly and have an early start the next day. And we did that – we found an island there protected from the wind where we set camp in a small hut we found over there.

We had some dry food and noodles and went to bed at around 8 pm. Tomorrow we’ll need to catch up with the miles we cut short today.

We still have around 80 km to go and the pace is not right there yet…
