About 5 years ago I led an expedition from London to New York, via Siberia, and Alaska. Art Mortvedt, a great friendly giant of a man, was our guide for the Alaska leg which took us from Wales to Fairbanks on snow-mobiles. Since then Art has been down to the Antarctic three or four times as a pilot in the pre Christmas "summer" months. Every time he comes back we talk and I search for an excuse to go there. This entry makes me want to go there even more than ever. And I’ve a feeling that one day I will. Thanks Tim – its great.



Great!

Shazz, I have to take issue with you about the snow- I've lived in England always, but have never experienced proper snow smiley - sadface

I guess that I have the advantage of being older then you in this case Joanna smiley - smiley I can remember building igloos and also walking between banked snow which was at least 1 foot taller than me smiley - smiley
The year I took my driving test there was snow (in November!), so I am quite an expert at negotiating icy and snowy roads smiley - smiley
