The moment when we were told that we weren't going to make it to our destination. Click here to view. We had lost three days because of bad weather and had we contonued along our planned course, then there was no way we could be extracted if anything else had gone wrong. It was a very sad moment in a way. We had got half way, and then had to trek all the way back. But we had no choice. You get an idea of what the weather was like, but that was actually one of the easier days. Only about -40C in the wind.

Hi everyone,
Well we are back in the UK - more of less in one piece. The flight landed at 6:30am this morning and amazingly wasn't delayed by blizzards, caribou on the runway or any other Arctic obstacles. When I get over the jetlag, I will write a full report of our trip here.
Right now I am going back to bed!

Everyone's at this point, but there's no real ___ we've ___ the luck with the weather.
