Gísli, Freyr and Gísli Karel have been working hard on the cars. All the four car got started without problems, those Hiluxes are something else! Two of the cars are almost ready for the expedition up to the high plate but most likely they will depart from Novo next Saturday. They are expecting Mike’s flight to arrive early tomorrow morning.
They will be driving through the crevasse area and spend the night in 2200 meter altitude up to the fuel drop. There will be four persons driving in two cars; Gísli, Freyr, Mike and Andrei. Another Russian will be joining when the plane brings in the fuel, but he is planning to jump down in a parasute. He used to be in the Russian Special Forces and is extremely experienced jumper.
Gísli Karel will stay behind in Novo and continue working on the two remaining cars. They have not got as much assistance as they expected and therefore Gísli Karel will have to work really hard back in Novo.
Otherwise everybody is doing fine and the spirit is very good.
