First camp on snow

Camp 4: Another long day, but better. All in all we progressed just 1 kilometre, but the everything was better. The weather was good and stayed dry all day, which meant we have now dried everything.
But the best thing is that we now believe we are done with heavy carrying up all the mountainous passes with difficult climbing. We did not loos out direction at all!
Today we even had a good spell on snow! But before we came to that we passed over a brow and had the mist stunning view yet. The hole forest, the fjord and the rolling glacier under us. Spectacular!
Tonight we have the first camp on snow and ice. That is a very good feeling, and we are looking very much forward to getting on skis proper.
