    Looking at the Alternative RV its a bit far I reckon, 40k in 2 days without knowing the area or conditions. Best bet I think is to head back to airport for original RV ?

    Good Idea Pete, I might have a look at stripping the sabre down too. I was worried cuz there's so many straps, I bought a cheap lightweight hold all to put it in but it ripped as soon as I lifted it, it couldnt take the kg's. I should send it back! but time is ticking!

    My Snowshoes just arrives, they have a plastic body, is that normal? just wondered the best way to pack them in my checked luggage so they dont break, maybe wrap them up in towel/clothing or something?

    I can Imagine then, anything bought from Norway costs a fortune! No problem then, I think Ducky & Teepee have something, Im meeting them hopefully before the trip, It just would have been nice to have my own if I could have got them.

    Yes, I thinks so Chris, the food makes a massive difference, Its suprising how much we consume in a day. Most of it is dry rations , with a few wet, boil in the bag ype army ration, and then nuts, chocs, tea etc, all adds up!

    Just done my first complete pack. OMG!! Dont laugh, but I actually fell over trying to lift it up, couldnt even clean & jerk it on to my shoulders, had to rest it on the bed then go from there! I opted to take all my food, as I didnt know what I could get out there. So the food is about...
