Now that the ice is beginning to form - yes, really - I have no kayaking stories to tell. The Folbot Kodiak is packed away for the winter and the carbon-fibre paddle really doesn't need sanding and varnishing. However, I could make a "ditch kit" as suggested by Bryan over at Nessmuking. Brilliant article.
But, I have opted for a little more Arctic News. I am currently in the process of finalising my participation on a course for teachers in Lycksele, Lapland in February next year. As more details become available I'll post them here. In the meantime, check out the Clim-ATIC website for information about this forward-thinking group.
Well, it never happened! The ice has yet to form and the course is not going to happen - not for me anyway. I could have booked the ticket 5 weeks ago with no problems. However, it seems we have something of a bureaucracy here in good old Greenland. Not the most effective one I might add!
