Nice day in Finland,,

Typical race sheet of the rally, some letters/numbers to be found in the wild, some questions to be answered,,

Norway, sweet view from the subaru

Entering Norway, No it´s not a camera bug, the sky looked like this,, beautiful is the word,,,

Crossing the border to Norway,,

Team Snowcat from Germany got stuck in the snow, we helped them out, the car leaked alot of oil after the crash and they had to leave the race later on,,

Hunting for checkpoints

Martin from Denmark had some trouble to start his Landcruiser,,, - 36 degrees celcius that morning, a trangia and a torch right at the oiltray. It got towed to a garage to heat up and started later. Martin was a true fighter the hole event..

Never hesitated to put the right pedal to the floor,, Patrik and Tomas in the Landcruiser struggled with some problems the after we left Alta in Norway, the 4wheel drive worked when it wanted to, rear axle broke and they got hold of a used axle that they had to rebuild themself to make it fit,, without rearbrakes they joined for the finnish in Stockholm.. All cred to these guys

Stuck,,

In the middle of nowhere we found this,, had to take a picture..

Baltic sea, yes we are driving on the ocean, for 10 kilometers,,

Baltic sea ice road,,

These cracks were everywhere on the ice road

Fruit from UK who won the race is a real nice guy,,
