Today the team struggled with the snow at the end of the day. For the past two days, the snow surface has been deteriorating by 4pm. This forced the team members to ski ankle deep for 17 kilometers through crusty snow which slowed them down considerably. Even with the added challenge, they successfully accomplished 30 km. Their current location is N66.14.300 W042.18.965.
We have a really great audio update today of the dogs at feeding time. Be sure to check it out and notice the sound of wind in the background. It's almost like we're there with them!

Greenland Fact: Today's fact is courtesy of wikipedia.com The Greenland Dog (Danish: Grønlandshunden, "The Greenland's Dog"; also known as Greenland Husky) is a large breed of husky-type dog kept as a sled dog and for hunting polar bear and seal. This is an ancient breed, thought to be directly descended from dogs brought to Greenland by the first Inuit settlers. Check it out here.
