Summer Skitour to Ny Ålesund

Svalbard, June 2004



The summer skitour from Ymerbukta to Ny Ålesund was organised by Svalbard Wildlife Service. It is a pleasure to thank the team at Wildlife for the magnificent job they've done. Special thanks to Anja and Ulf at Hundreogto for making our stay in Longyearbyen such a pleasant one.

Til sist vil jeg særlig takke guidene Martin og Thorbjørn og deltakerene Anita, Bjørn, Grethe, Harald, Helen, Jens Kristian, Marianne, Nils, Olaug Irene og Synnøve for ei kjempefin uke: Tusen takk for den fantastiske turen!
