EXPEDITION TEAM

Our force is that all members of the team know each other very well. Living together so closely in a tent for three weeks, this is a great advantage. You can prepare to cope with the irritating habits of your tent mate, like his rediculous snoring and stinking feet. We need to trust each other 100% under pressure. We will not have any surprises regarding this. Each man will allways try to act in the way that makes himself and the team strongest.
