22nd July

The YL’s got to within reach of the Oksfjord glacier today. Some of us slightly too tired to actually step on the ice however; the team were kind enough to bring some back for us to touch. Mind you we were only 200m away!



Sadly our bivvi plans had to be put aside due to logistical issues. Still, we spent a good day exploring the valley we are based in. Steve, Katie and Nikki managed to conquer the largest boulder first, however, Tim and Sarah claimed they had sneaked up behind on the conquering of the boulder opposite. There could have only been millimetres in it!

Tomorrow we plan for a day at base camp practising bush craft skills.
