Training complete, Team Expedition Limitless
2026 headed north, high above the Arctic Circle on the sleeper towards Abisko and the start of the 'Kungsleden'- 'The Kingsway'.

This remarkable bunch had already raised the amazing amount of over £150000 for the incredible charities and on the Isle of Man,
providing respite care for children and their familes in times of need and a range of child services supporting families.

The team were now faced with challenging Arctic conditions, forecast Storms 🥶 and a 110km snow shoe trek........

Still time to sponsor

This week we worked with Forces Wives Challenge wives_challenge at the ever-flexible and incredibly welcoming .

The FWC trip is called 'Discover Nordic Ski', but the team who joined us will probably agree it was about far more than that…

Following on from the inaugural trip in 2025, this year’s team were again met with frequent plan changes and challenging weather. Once again they lived the FWC motto:

“Together we can achieve anything"

It’s always a pleasure working with this brilliant organisation and alongside my good friend Heather Jean at the helm.

Huge thanks as well to Sofia Lindberg and Karin Trolin for their professionalism, humour and efforts in making 'Discover Nordic Ski' such a success.

And finally, a massive thanks to the team who threw themselves into every challenge with smiles, resilience and real team spirit.

Cold days, shifting plans, big landscapes and even bigger laughs — exactly what the mountains are all about.

Ice breaking drills at -20C, average temperature over the week of sub -20C, the occasional 'feels like' temp of -34C with a cheeky last night camp of -31C (with added Northern lights to boot!!!)...

Certainly the perfect environment for the Cold Weather Technician Course - Exercise 'Cold Snap'. Infact, the coldest week that I and my buddy have run the course in the last 9 years!

Additional precautions obviously feature as part of risk management with these conditions; at these temperatures; everything is very real, very serious - a dropped glove, broken snow shoe, a blister.... all suddenly become a different sort of challenge and the need for 'crocodile infested custard' is nugatory.

No surprise that their culture, camaraderie, teamwork and resilience shone through with UKISAR team - as always; a team who never fail to deliver - despite some of them only meeting each other on Sunday evening.

Keep doing what you're doing UKISAR - you really do rock; 'in your hands the world is a safer place'!

Just remember.... 5%!!!!

Already looking forward to meeting your colleagues for the 2027 season....

Last week, and I had the opportunity to work with our 'Buttys' and
from to deliver the
Cold Weather Technician Course to a group of ab initio UKISAR operators from across the UK, in near-perfect conditions ranging from –12°C to –30°C.🥶

As always, the incredibly high-performing culture of UKISAR shone through. Despite many of the group meeting each other for the first time only last Sunday, the UKISAR ethos and high standards (and of course, great banter🤣!!!) were evident throughout and impressive as always!

Group 2 arrive imminently with a similar forecast to look forward to...❄️

Today I was asked to comment on building a safe snowhole after a child was buried whilst playing at school here in Sweden.

First and foremost, I send the family sympathy and wish their 'littleun' a full recovery❤️.

So sad when kids get hurt having adventures (which I believe is even more important in today's world), but I think the risk can be managed.

I guess the message is - don't build at the bottom of a large snow pile, keep the roof thin to reduce volume of snow (if it does collapse), always have someone outside the hole with a shovel ready to help and ALWAYS have an adult present.

Keep the adventure - manage the risk 🙏
