Some more photos showing water coming up in our old tracks (did not take any pictures of the worst parts, sorry) and snowdepth where one of our snowmobiles got stuck.

Great recovery job, and probably the smartest tool for the job.

How much experimentation did you have to do to get the sled right?

Thanks for all kind words.
This expedition has caused me a lot of problems not only that I had to cancel it but due to other reasons. We managed to do some damage to the prepared snowmobile iceroad (don´t know the right word, sorry) that I now have to repair and as you know I´m a long long way from the scene of action. In my search for someone to help me repair the iceroad I got a tip of another UC stranded in the mountain! I called the owner and he confirmed it was an UC and it sits not that far from nearest road, about 2km. Will make a trip there this summer. Pansar is cut down and a Volvo engine has replaced the V8, don´t know anything more other than that for the moment.
