https://www.vertaglia.com/al2vbn26 I’ve arrived in Ryabaga Camp!  We left Murmansk yesterday morning and took a three and a half hour bus ride through the tundra to the little town of Lovozero.  Then a group of sixteen of us loading onto an Mi-8 for the two hour ride across the Kola Peninsula to Ryabaga.

watch Internet connection is a bit slow (satellite) so posting may be a bit infrequent.  Rest assured, though, the updates will be coming.
