Excellent video, with great advice. Brings back many memories of when I guided sled dog winter camping trips here in northeastern Minnesota. I still have sled dogs, but now just for the shear joy of running them and living with them. Thank you for your videos!

Thanks for this very important video! Tromsø, Norway, 69 degrees north. I use Garmin iNreach for SMS/mail communication via the iridium network. Works very reliable and good. I know people who wouldn't be alive without this device. Instead of using garmin's built in weather forecast, I ask my family for text based forecast for my position from yr.no - same weather service as you use, Matti. Very reliable for my use. The SPOT devices use a satelite network with much less reliable coverage up here, but SPOTs have still saved lives in this area. Keep up the good work, Matti and Stina! Tusen takk!

For me the Inreach with ability to send messages about my progress, changes in my route etc. to my family is great. Having a satellite phone would be excellent but since I dont have a business with paying customers it is a bit too expensive. I do however also bring a vhf/uhf radio programmed with common channels for shorter range communication If travelling in a group and possible emergency communication with rescue services that have ability to communicate on VHF ch 16. I also keep a few radios with family at home and in my car so that they can bring them to communicate if they have to come out and help me tow a snowmobile or locate me even if they have my gps position. /Jonas

That’s a good idea with the radio. …and I totally agree about the communication with satellite devices. It really changed the game. /Matti
@maritsigurdson89934 ай бұрын
I also like Inreach, and I rent it for the time I need it, then I don't need to pay an expensive subscription, plus I get the model that I need for a specific trip. I also love the feeling of not having to own yet another gadget that will be out of date/out of service in a few years.

Stopping, Waiting and changing plans, routes, directions or schedules are successes- a testament to solid planning and conscious preparation. Without proper preparations and on-site awareness, this would otherwise put you in even worse conditions. Great video Matti.

I carry a PLB on my hikes but the problem is if i lose consciousness i can not press the button. A Garmin Inreach can be monitored by someone else at home, if you stop moving for hours or days or if you don't send a message according to a pre made up plan they can call for help.

Wow, this was an incredible video, great scenery, great advice. You have skill when you can talk to a camera and control a dog sled team at the same time! If you haven't done a video on skis and how to use them in this terrain, that would be helpful too, thank you :)

Hey Matti, another informativ and entertaining video. Have to add one thing, don´t know if you already mentioned it: choose the right partner for your trip. That makes you not only feel saver.... I wasn´t that lucky with my choice, but learned about it first while beeing on the tour, althougt we knew eachother for a good bit and did several trips together... but not in this kind of environment and activity. Never again... unfortunately... better do it by your own next time, like the older lady we met in Aktse, doing the white ribbon by herself. But anyway, We are right back now from Kvikkjokk and Kungsleden and we had still a good bit of fun and enjoyed our trip most of the time and for good measure - at our last full day !!! you came past with your dog team and some klients heading to Kvikkjokk shortly before Parte Fjellstuga. I heard you in my back calling "ja ja" to your dogs and recognized your voice immediately - turned back and waved to you calling "hey Matti" ... "beautifull weather" you answered - and wushhh - you were fare away in the woods. My companion didn´t even had a clou what happenend and couldn´t understand my exitement. But for myself it kept me well mooded the following days ...sadly he wasn´t interestet in Jokkmokks Sami Museum and other interesting things too... so "we" decidet to leave right after our tour and heading back the whole way home in one ride... So I had no chance to ask you if the coffee was tasty ;-) Maybe next time.

Hej Tobias! You're absolutely right about choosing the right partner for an outdoor adventure, at least if you have the possibility. We're bringing out clients and never really know what kind of personalities they have but the persons you spend time with on a trip makes a huge difference. Thank you so much for the coffee and choclate you delivered to our door step. That was really sweet of you! I hadn't been able to give it to Matti last week so he hasn't tasted it yet but he will do when he comes back home soon. Take care and hope you get better outdoor experiences in the future! /Stina
