Tell me Breen, where is the sun


Anbefalte innlegg

This monday I will start a trip on Spitsbergen to look where the sun is, So this trip will be up until february 15th.

I will stay on the Tell glacier, relative close to Longyearbyen (look at the name)

Here a picture of the place where I will stay (picture from October 2013), and a nice drawing, just to keep me

motivated during the bad days.

As you see, I can charge up 12v batteries, with my bike generator.

The bike generator has a double function: It keeps me warm (it takes some hours for charging a battery) and I can use

the batteries for charging headlights etc.....

This bike generator has been used allready 2 years.....

 

I will place here more pictures during my stay, I have full cell Phone reach, up there.

I am back in Longyearbyen now after 9 weeks out in the field. The winter was warm on Spitsbergen. I could receive radio NRK 1 at my place and heard also the weather on the Norwegian coast, what a wind up there.

I will place more pictures soon, but here is mu favourite one: The entrance of the ice-cave.

In february I had the luxery to have 4 places to sleep: The ice-cave, my tent, my snowcave and my igloo.

I managed to build an Canadian igloo with inside a stairway to the second floor: my sleeping room :D

Last Saterday I went back to my igloo on the Tellglacier to see if it was still standing.

Surprise for me, it was still standing, also the second floor was there, only it was to low to sleep there, so I slept on the first floor.

Amazing to see that after 5 months the igloo is still up.

It will melt down in 3-4 weeks

On Sunday morning I took this picture:

Here two short video's from Svalbard:

The first one has been filmed in January 2014 and shows the inside of my big igloo, see also the pictures here above:

The second one has been filmed in May 2014 while waiting for the ship to pick me up. I am on the sea ice on Billefjorden. I did climb the mountain in the middle of the glacier (Nordenskiold glacier), Terrierfjellet, in very good weather.

For this video I used a selfmade slowly turning (90 degree) tripod:
