All three Greenland teams faced storms this week.
Despite unfavorable conditions, the three Greenland expeditions are progressing across the Inland Ice.
Norwegian sisters Aase and Hanne Seeberg are performing strongly on their east-to-west traverse. After 22 days, they are due to arrive at DYE II, an old radar station about three-quarters of the way along their 600km route.
“They have found deep snow but have skied a regular 20km every day,” reports expedition liaison Lars Ebbeson. “They cleared the Summit [the apex of the Ice Sheet] before the last storm on the east side, so have been able to progress over the last few days.”

On Sunday evening Johansen and Chandi had to dig in and build a snow wall to protect their camp from the very strong winds. They managed to travel on Tuesday and Wednesday, but were tentbound again on Thursday and Friday because of winds of 16-22 m/s (roughly 60 to 80kph).
