Helsinki archipelago!


Sub24 goes a bit imaginative in winter to adapt to the challenging conditions. Olivier had a brilliant idea for this Sub24 and it's is all about skiing.

Here we go for the details:

When?
This Friday 25th of January, 5.30 pm

Where?
Munkkiniemi aukio gas station, Huopalahdentie 1

What?
The plan is to leave from Munkkiniemi, ski about 8 km on the sea ice to an island (near-by Käärmeluoto, south of Lauttasaari) and camp there on solid ground. Prepare yourself to sleep in a tent in cold conditions. To have a more relax evening on the island we can start a wood sauna there. 


What to take?
Aside from the usual gear described in this post, few other items might become handy for this trip:

-COMPULSORY Naskalit (http://www.veneilijanverkkokauppa.fi/images/naskalit+pilli.jpg)
-Spare cloth in plastic or waterproof bag
-Towel
-Flashlight

Watch this video, might be useful one day (like this Friday?):
