Update by Astrid, Marit's sister.
Marit and Atle are still having some troubles updating themselves, so I received an other phone call last night.
They've been stuck for 2 days, day 5-7, in the tent because of bad weather. Marit could tell me that they had been outside the tent two times each during the two days, to shovel snow to keep the tent from being buried in snow. Apparently the wind has been pretty strong, so they hadn't dared to stand up when they were outside, just crept around the tent. Finally, on day 7, they kept going, though in total 'white out'. It had been a long day Marit could tell me, and the had gained 'a few kilometers' as she said. I imagine that the snow is pretty deep... Most important, they're both good!

I april 2011 legger vi ut på en skitur over en diger isbre litt vest for fedrelandet. Bloggen er opprettet med tanke på dem som lurer på hvordan vi klarer oss, dem som godter seg over å sitte i vårsola å nyte en utepils mens vi trekker med oss alt vi trenger for å overleve, dem som gjerne skulle vært med, men hadde en såkalt god unnskyldning for å la være, og ikke minst for oss selv når dagene går over i hverandre og alt er hvitt.
