Some years
ago I was up in North West Greenland in the Qaanaaq region and up to Sioropaluk
on a dog sledge expedition. I was told by the Inuit ´s that they have 10 month
of winter and 2 month with bad snow and ice for dog sledge tours for going to hunt
and fishing. Today we got 5-10 cm of
snow and the whole transportation system collapse. No train, no busses, cancel
of flight, can’t drive on the road due to stocked car and trucks. Winter is
always a surprise for many people. The one, who think ahead, will always be a
winner. I´m not thinking of being smart, just to be prepared with different possibilities
when winter strikes. Firewood in house, winterised car with some extra cloth,
some warm drinks and tools to help me out if stocked in snow and some more
things good to have in emergency or problem on the road. I always try to be one
step ahead. Be smart say yes to the winter like the people in the north.
