Day SIX<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

There is no more email connection so communication will continue using a satellite phone.<\/p>\n

Editor’s note: This also means that sending photos is more difficult, but Bill will send them when he can.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"Today was a full-on day.
\nSnow and white-out conditions, making navigation difficult.
\nWorked my way through ice fields; pulling the sled through snow slows down everything.
\nDid see some animal tracks; ended up at the end of the day camping in a nice spot on the ice near some trees, protected from the wind.
\nMaking an attempt to find a more direct and energy-saving route.<\/p>\n

This is truly a magical place!
\nLet’s see what tomorrow will bring.
