Continuing boot problems
| Continuing boot problems | |
| 30 May 2006 Yesterday, we set out from Camp Raven at 2.30 pm our time and finished at 6.30, having travelled 15.9 km. We had intended going on till 7 pm but both of my boots had gone. The first one broke within minutes of setting off. This morning we spent another few hours attempting to fix them. The boys drilled into the ski. Now the ski is gone. We even used the back of a rucksack in a desperate attempt to find a fix. We have lost about £1,000 worth of equipment in trying to find a solution. We are not feeling too happy about this… Our goal today is to reach the 400km mark zone. As we approached Camp Raven on Saturday we saw another group of Norwegians from the boot manufacturers in the distance but they were too far away for us to approach them. Perhaps that was just as well. Incidentally, we each have a nickname
