I am having trouble uploading photos, so I can't put any in this post.
I have been a busy boy since is last posted. I have been ice climbing at Franz Joseph, which is another glacier, about 20km north of my town. I have been up on Heli-hikes, climbed a small mountain near my place and today i spent a day working on the track. Track means you go up on the ice and you have to dig out steps in the ice with a big miners pick. It is hard work, usually you start at about 730 and finish about 11. Today however i did the normal track then went up and dug out the day line. The normal track is just the part where the half day hikes go but the day line is a big loop further up on the glacier and it winds through big crevasses and stuff. It is very cool but very hard work. So today i was swinging my pick from 8am till 330pm. I am feeling very fucked now. my wrists and forearms are toasted and tomorrow i am co-guiding a day hike which means alot more step cutting.

I am not sure why i am having probs with the photos they may be too big so i am trying a smaller file to see if that works better. It is not working so you will have to wait for photos.
sorry

hugs
