Today starts out with a bit of potential as some clear blue sky catches up
with us and it actually becomes pretty hot and there is a fair bit of delayering.
It is also a good chance for some photos and video.

| Dog star sun over the low cloud coming in from behind us |
All too soon a low cloud comes in and both the visibility and temperature
drop. The light becomes very flat and the rest of the day is a real trudge -
still we do make our 20k for the day. After the reasonably flat terrain
yesterday, today's route is littered with sastrugi. This means that you can't
really get into a smooth rhythm and that is a big problem for me with my rather
heavy sled as it glides very poorly over the bumps which put a brake on the momentum that I have managed to create- the flat light later on
doesn't help much as then I struggle to see them then as well!
