Winter images from Svalbard
Since 2011 we have done at least one expedition every year to Svalbard in winter. Winter-time in the high Arctic is about an experience that is difficult to describe in words and pictures. In this gallery you will find images and videos from some of the situations it is possible to experience in winter-time.
