Focus is now being placed on the last preparations for the guiding trip "Last Degree to the North Pole" whereby a group of 11 adventurous souls (Belgians, two Americans and one Dutch) will strive together with guides Dixie and Troy to reach 90° North.  Departure from Longyearbyen, Spitsbergen is foreseen on 2 April.
