I woke up to such a beautiful winter wonderland!
When I say woke up, I really mean, got out of bed. I slept fitfully, probably due to all the excitement.
Enjoying the last few moments of warmth in the bus.
We drove 3 hours up to our drop off point, unloaded our gear and packed the sledges, stopped for a long lunch and then skied across a frozen lake to our campsite for the night.
Clipping up before we set off.
Today’s learning included setting up a tent with huge gloves which wasn’t too bad and learning how to work and cook on the primus stove. I found this to be a quite soothing task.
Putting up our tents.
Also trying to get down a hill with a pulk/sledge gracefully is something I still have to master but I’m loving every moment and smiling as I go!
