Today at work

Today I went across Trondheimsfjorden and after 3 hours driving I parked my car.
I had my snowmobile in the trailer.




After a 20 min ride I got stuck for the second time. I assume that the snowdepth was about 1,5 meters. Nothing but powder. Most of the time it was hard to see where to go because everything was white, like a whiteout. Under these conditions it is hard to keep the right speed in order to stay on top of the snow.


I got my snowmobile up and running, but it was a tough ride. If you think driving a 260 kg snowmobile is like taking a walk in the park,  think again.
Just in front of a steep hill I parked my ride and put on my snow shoes.


I had to get up this hill and some hundred meters further.


Almost at the top the weather changed. Again. For the umpteen time this day.
But I could spot my radio tower. Yihaa.


Wind and snow did not stop me this time. I got my work done.
