Greetings all from Lapland!

All is good, all my kit is still bone dry. It's a barmy -8 and snowing, the Rum isn't frozen anymore so I'm bored of jokkmokk and off up north to kiruna, maybe to Abisko and then back to kiruna to fly home.

Had to strip to underwear which had the locals in their down jackets looking a bit bemused.

I'm on the Spot beacon guys.
Hauled 100 kg 8km today on gritted roads as the ice on the lake is too thin to cross and now my toboggan is pulling badly to one side!
Tonight I'm staying in a hostel in Jokkmokk so I can catch the bus up north in the morning and look vaguely human again.

Lennart- I missed the lake hauling in the twilight and ended up well down that snowmobile path!

I'll post up in another week or so when I get some WiFi again.

Bring on the mountains!

Anybody heard from Pete, I've had 3 Spot updates from him today so just wondering if he's okay?

I'll try and text him but he's useless with his phone at the best of times
