Svalbard - špice Spitzbergna
Boštjan Mašera (2007)
All three Slovenian expeditions to Spitzbergen (in 2005, 2006, and 2007) had to face logistical difficulties. Violent storms and temperatures in the region of minus 50 degree Celsius are not uncommon in the Polar Circle. The steep walls of the largest island of Svalbard - Spitzbergen - call for a completely different climbing approach from that required in the Alps, the Andes, or other mountain ranges around the world. And don't forget to watch out for polar bears!- 2007
