Dave soon called with the news that they have been becalmed for two days, only covering 10-15km each day. They were in good spirits and spoke of being visited by a pack of Arctic wolves - animals so large they left paw prints the size of a mans hand.They were cheered to hear that a light Northerly wind is forecast for the next 24hrs, but, by the look of the weather chart below, they may not be covering any huge distances in the near future!

I read some of the comments on the blog which gave them a great stoke!

Hooooowwwwwwwwwwwl’s it going? (< Toby’s contribution)
Seriously though…Wolves! Rye whisky! Snowmobiles! Dubious personal hygiene! Northern adventures!
We are supremely impressed at your medievil badness. The forecast looks crap according to Pat, but we’re hoping this is the time to haul out the Speed and do some clever upwind business….?
Hope you are not too crispy around the edges.

What an amazing experience! I’m following your journey most days - Loved the caribou cooking tips although I can’t see it catching on here in Glasgow.

Dave Goldie - you god damn kite sledding freak..!
I don’t quite know how I came upon this site but I have just spent the past three quarters of an hour reading about what you’re doing.. and it has blown me away. what adventures! I always thought that you would sail the world on a pea green boat and yet here you are traversing the arctic circle on a self-made kite sled…fuck
You take care now, I wish you fair winds and meals of raw liver
