Wild about William - With the office easy to find, clean, well organised and friendly staff we were soon kitted out and on our way. Just two of us on our tour we could not have had a better time with William as our guide. It was clear that he was extremely experienced and knowledgeable - even if he did forget his gloves - and as two lone females we were completely at ease even when he produced his hatchet!! Parking in a remote spot about 30 mins from the City we donned our snow shoes and ventured out into the forests which were so peaceful, the only noise being made by us. Finding one of the tepees William had supplies for at least a week and soon set about organising and instructing us on chopping the wood and using flint to light and make the most wonderful campfire. We did decline his sausage but gratefully accepted hot drinks, chocolate and wonderful toasted marshmallows along with great stories and insight into his life and travels. Given the clouds we knew we were unlikely to see the Aurora but we kept checking with William taking the opportunity to take some great photos for us. The Aurora would have been a bonus but William made it an incredible experience we will treasure and would highly recommend any adventure with him!

Snowshoeing in a magical place - We snowshoeed with the snow falling so we didn't see the dawn... on the other hand, in a Sami tent the guide prepared frankfurters and a hot drink... the only flaw was that he had to give us more torches to see the route and avoid falls and evaluate the group's capabilities...
