Hi,
I’m not experienced in crossing but here are my tips:
– i would rather have skis (slightly wider than cross-country one) more than walking just to make easier.
– Track is kind of ok, but of course depend how much you can do every day.I think in average you can do 25km, usually you need to sleep in the tent half way to huts.I know people take 9 days to get to Hella, maybe only 4 is a bit optimistic.
– I think after Hrauneyiar can be that the snow pack is little or not present, so carry sledge on half of the south coast can be really painful (i don’t know if that is in the project, or you drop them in Hella) unless you have wheels to put underneath.
Cheers,
Matteo
